Abstract | The Every Students Succeeds Act (ESSA) provided states with newfound flexibility on accountability measures and school improvement strategies. Many policy experts have analyzed states' ESSA plans, which explain how states use their federal funds under various provisions of the new law, as well as the approaches states take to identify and rate schools and improve their performance where needed. While strong accountability frameworks and school improvement plans are critical for school and student success, ensuring that all students have access to excellent educators is just as important. Ensuring that all students have access to well-prepared and supported teachers undergirds all other efforts to improve student outcomes. Not much has been written on how states plan to leverage Title II, Part A of ESSA to strengthen their teacher pipelines. The Center for American Progress has reviewed each state's ESSA plan, searching specifically for state-led and state-supported programs that will be funded, at least in part, through Title II, Part A of ESSA--the section of the law that designates funding specifically for recruiting, preparing, and supporting teachers. This brief highlights a few noteworthy states that have proposed promising teacher pipeline initiatives that they are either starting or continuing with support from Title II, Part A of ESSA. Consistent with the TeachStrong coalition's ESSA guidance for state actors, these states are leveraging ESSA's flexibility to support efforts around recruiting teachers of color; improving the teacher preparation experience; providing induction and mentoring to novice teachers; increasing teacher pay; and creating or encouraging career pathways, with the goal of ensuring that all students--and especially students in low-income schools--are taught by high-quality, prepared, meaningfully supported teachers. The author also notes what other initiatives and actions policymakers and advocates should watch for and consider as they work to modernize and elevate the teaching profession. (ERIC). |
