Description

An EdTrust policy framework that organizes state and district actions to increase the racial and cultural diversity of the educator workforce and improve students' access to diverse educators.

Components

  • Six-strategy state policy framework for increasing the racial diversity of the educator workforce: The brief organizes state policy conditions into six strategies: making educator diversity data visible and actionable, setting clear state and district goals, investing in educator preparation programs, targeting resources to districts and schools for recruiting a diverse workforce, investing in retention of teachers of color, and using federal COVID-related relief funds. Each strategy is rated on a three-level scale from "Meets all or most of the requirements within the goal" down to "Meets one or no requirements within the goal", with printed rating methodologies for each criterion. The framework is applied to score Michigan's actions. (The Education Trust (2022))
