"Most charter schools draw less-experienced teachers because they can't offer the pay or union protection that traditional districts offer. Supporters also say charter schools demand longer hours and more work from educators.
New teachers are credited with energy and open minds, but widespread inexperience is a potential liability for schools. Rookie teachers aren't as effective because they're still learning their jobs, research shows. There are piles of paperwork to sort through, lesson plans to create and strategies to master for handling difficult students.
Green teachers also can hinder the kind of progress the public expects from charter schools, which are billed as an alternative to failing traditional public schools."
