Impact on Urban Children  Philadelphia: every 7th classroom  York: every 10 th classroom  Harrisburg: every 10 th classroom has a teacher on emergency permit. PA DOE, August, 2002

Unequal Access to Effective Teachers  31% of schools in PA are high-poverty schools  These schools enroll 25% of PA students  11% of teachers in these schools are first-year teachers, and 39% have five years of experience or less PA DOE 2002 profiles

Teacher transfers increase problem of equity

Challenges Ahead in PA  High school enrollment projected to increase by 17,000 students over 5 years in PA, and by 114,000 in contiguous states  Teacher graduates down by 15.9% over past five years, and increased standards may reduce supply further  Roughly half of PA students do not meet state standards in reading and math  256 schools in PA and 1,714 in contiguous states were listed as “in School Improvement” under NCLB

How will schools and districts respond to increased pressure to raise achievement?

Questions for Policymakers  How can each state improve teacher quality while ensuring adequate supply?  Are states better off pursuing teacher quality competitively or cooperatively?  In which areas would regional collaboration add value?

The Mid-Atlantic Regional Teacher Project MARTP Priorities 1. Create full regional reciprocity, especially for experienced teachers 2. Raise standards for teacher licensure in coordinated fashion 3. Create Meritorious New Teacher certificate based on highest standards

The Mid-Atlantic Regional Teacher Project MARTP Priorities 4. Coordinate electronic hiring halls and promote use 5. Collaborate on data collection, labor market tracking, and evaluation of strategies

Our shared goal: A high quality teacher for every classroom, every child.
