Raise the starting salary to 75k or give a hefty COLA percentage raise to keep teachers.
A millennial teacher at my school told me that she could either do Doordash, Instacart or work fast food and almost make her first year teacher's salary here in CA since minimum wage is going up to $20 an hour. I was blown away.
Note that the districts with the highest pay and the best pension and benefit packages are big city school districts with the worst working conditions and the worst educational outcomes.

Blaming it all on the teachers is getting old.
You are so right. Principals seem to be told that blame teachers when kids bring guns to school. At my school, a kid was expelled for bringing a BB gun. When my principal had a meeting with the teacher's student. He said that the teacher's classroom culture is the reason for the student bringing the BB gun to class. All I can say is wow!!!!!

I’ve felt that way. The students’ were having difficulty with behavior because I hadn’t done enough to develop the right relationships. At least, that’s the message I’ve come away with over the past few years.
I have no complaints about pay. What’s expected as far as workload and the amount of time available to accomplish it, is an issue.
