Actually just saying, William Glassers therories are studied by mainstream educators & psychologists, particularly when looking at @ risk kids.

I agree with you though that 6 months of employemnt is an alarmingly high turnover & if dossier is typical of programme staff then it is distrubing that they employ underpaid and underqualified kids.

Nationwide teacher turnover rate is 50% in the first 5 years, 10% each year. Does that mean we should stop having teachers due to high turn over rate? I can tell you part of the reason on a high turn over is being overworked and underpaid.

Anonymous:
Teacher turnover MAY be because they are overworked and underpaid; but they ARE QUALIFIED.
This employee admits he/she has no college, and very little training.

Oz girl:
no of course not. This atttrition rate would really need to be adressed though because it is pretty high. In a school that proclaims to adress the needs of troubled kids this is an issue because the school itself claims to provide structure but a kid only has a primary care giver for 6 months at a maximum then the school is failing to meet this goal.
Perhaps pay is also an issue. i would imagine that if you paid more you could afford highly trained professionals and not idealistic kids who should be helping to run summer camps until they have a qualification.
