Been there. My question is not “Will they lose their idealism?” but “When will they?”
They deserve combat pay.

"They deserve combat pay."
It may seem harsh.
But, They deserve all they get.

It starts for most they first day of school. The turnover rate for new teachers is very high. Last I read, something in the neighborhood of 50% [I believe it's actually higher than my estimate] of these new teachers leave teaching within 3-5 years. A formal mentoring system for these new teachers is the remedy currently being used to give them a kind of support that will make them want to stay in teaching.

It has been my experience that when they lose their idealism they REALLY lose it and they are more than happy to share that fact with you at high volume.
