NEISD had 69 teachers so far in 2020 who filed for retirement, compared to 46 teachers in 2019. SAISD says there are 237 teachers who filed, compared to 198 in 2019 and 215, in 2018. South San ISD says in the 2020 school year, there were 10 teachers who filed for retirement, compared to 15 in 2019 and 10 the year before.
