Teacher Pipeline: Recruitment and Retention

Public schools today lack a racially diverse teacher workforce – creating problems now that will get worse as our student population becomes more diverse. We need to "...expose children to a diverse teaching staff within each of our schools. Every child has a basic right to a great public school with a qualified and caring staff, including educators who look like them, who share similar cultural experiences, and who can serve as role models demonstrating that education and achievement are things to be respected." - Reg Weaver, former President, NEA
