{New} Where do new teacher hires come from? I break down the data in my latest piece for @The74. The findings--and the differences across the country--may surprise you: the74million.org/article/where-…

Does the image of a new teacher in your head match match what a new teacher looks like on the ground? Nice article surfacing the need to shift how we think about who is in applicant pools.

@ArmstrongSaenz @sarahlouwou @mwolofson And @DINA_G86!

Education agencies have more data than ever. But decision-making to improve student outcomes requires more than data—it requires talented individuals to organize, analyze, and communicate that data to the people who need it most.

Spotted some @HarvardSDP fellows and alumni at @EdNCES STATS-DC!

@doughesm @HarvardSDP @teainfo @EdNCES @UConnNeag Thanks Shaun!

@HarvardSDP @JeremyBLanda @teainfo @EdNCES I knew him when! Jeremy is an outstanding PhD grad of @UConnNeag, a terrific human, and doing great work in Texas!

Be sure to catch SDP Fellow Alumnus @JeremyBLanda of @teainfo at the @EdNCES STATS-DC 2023 Data Conference this week. Stop by his presentation, "Building Tools and Knowledge on Teacher Hiring and Preparation to Support Local Education Agencies and the Public."

Position opened on a great team! Spread the word!

@matt_barnum @sbanchero You can find current data on turnover by district size for Texas here: tea.texas.gov/sites/default/…. You can find current data on new hires here: tea4avcastro.tea.state.tx.us/oess/edrs/regi…. The turnover data at the district level, by FTEs for 21-22 is here:rptsvr1.tea.texas.gov/cgi/sas/broker.

@sbanchero both aggregate and more localized data are important imo. I would strongly suspect that 1) *increases* in turnover are widespread 2) *total* turnover continues to be higher in high-needs districts.

I think the most helpful data would be to see exactly where this is happening in TX -- so we can target solutions; and 2) understand why. I Understand data is scarce but we really need it to fully help young people ..
