Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the differences in the perceptions of juvenile justice teachers in Georgia, Louisiana, and Ohio. Juvenile justice teachers (n = 542) completed an extensive attrition and retention survey with a 98% response rate. Comparisons were made between states, type of facility (short or long-term), gender, and teaching areas (general or special education).Significant differences were found across all areas.

RESULTS are discussed in relationship to how to retain and support juvenile justice teachers on the job.
