likely to be minorities and to want
to work in inner-city schools,
according to a study released
Monday.
A third of the teachers who took
an alternate route to the classroom
say they’d be willing to work in
large inner cities, compared to 12
percent of all current public school
teachers and 12 percent of new
hires from traditional programs,
according to the study by the
National Center for Education
Infonnation.
The independent, non-partisan
research group looked at
alternative certification plans in
two states as part of a larger teacher
study. It found that 43 percent of
the non-traditional teachers in
Texas and 20 percent of those in
New Jersey were minorities.
The overall teaching force is
becoming older, whiter and more
female, the study found. The
average age of all public school
teachers is 42 years; of new
teachers hired since 1985, the
average age is 35 years. Ninety-two
percent of all public school
teachers are white and 71 percent
are women.
The study of 3,201 elementary
and secondary school teachers
currently on the job also concluded
that a predicted teaching shortage
probably will not occur because
many teachers who leave the
profession tend to return.
Of the teachers in the study, 38
percent have had at least one break
from teaching; 46 percent of those
hired since 1985 have had one
break and 18 percent of these have
had two or more breaks
"Teaching appears to be a
revolving door," the study said.
Center director Emily Feistritzer
said childbearing was listed most
often as the reason for taking a
break from teaching. She said more
attention should be paid to the
’’returning teacher phenomenon."
"All this business of teachers being
miserable and leaving is not being
bOTie out in data anywhae,"’ she
YELLOW
CAB
said.
TTiere are 2.3 million public
school teachers and another
300,000 private school teachers in
the United Slates. Some education-
related groups are predicting a
shortage due to teacher attrition,
increasing student enrollments and
fewer college graduates seeking
teaching jobs.
Thanks to Teachers, an
organization sponsored by the
National Education Association
and private business groups, reports
that many school districts already
are reporting shortages. The group
says far too few college students
are enrolled in teacher-training
programs to fill the expected 1.3
million teaching job openings
expected by 1994.
Other studies have estimated that
about 200,000 new teachers would
be needed a year.
However, Feistritzer said about
650,000 teachers have been hired in
the last five years, averaging out to
.130,000 a year. About 71,000 of
those hired each ye^ are new
teachers.
