From Stress to Distress
I feel like there are a lot of really good teachers who did leave and it wasnât because they were bad teachers; it was just because they couldnât deal with the pressure and the hours and the stress that is kind of put upon people.

A former KIPP teacher was headed for a visit to the KIPP school where he had resigned the year before. He had found a different job since leaving KIPP, and he was able to sleep again. He had started to gain weight, and his hair was starting to grow back. While at KIPP, he had made friends with other KIPP teachers, and he missed the kids that he had come to know, despite all the organizational rules that discouraged that from happening. He recalls:
I was walking down the sidewalk outside of the school, and I ran into one of the teachers who was going to the deli on the corner to go grab a Gatorade, and he said, âEvery time I see somebody whoâs left this school, they always come back looking ten times happier.â So when I think about KIPP now, I think about how grateful I am that Iâve been able to get some sleep and have some of my hair start growing back.
