This paper examines who chooses to become a teacher. I haven’t read it yet, but the findings look fascinating — see below, for example. And there’s data suggesting interest in profession is dropping significantly, which may be sign of what’s to come on enrollment.

Today @CoryBooker & @JohnCornyn, with @ChrisMurphyCT & @SenatorCollins, introduced the PATHS to Tutor Act. We are proud to support this legislation, which would provide extra support to vulnerable children and strengthen the pipeline of future teachers. #PATHStoTutor
Be careful with your solutions. If they don’t take hard work and real behavior change they won’t last. To paraphrase @ThisIsSethsBlog ‘There is always a line at the magic wand store.’
Thank you @sitonarcisse for the vision setting this morning at @BRAC_BatonRouge Looking forward to continued work improving @ebrpschools with @LRCETeach
