SACRAMENTO, CA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Today, EdVoice Institute, together with 21 organizations \u2013 representing students, educators, parents, community members, and advocates across California \u2013 released \u201cEvery Classroom, Every Child: Lasting Solutions for California\u2019s Teacher Shortage<\/a>\u201d, a comprehensive policy brief outlining evidence-based strategies to address California’s persistent teacher shortage crisis that disproportionately impacts students from high-needs schools.<\/p>\n

\n

The brief reveals stark disparities in teacher quality across California’s schools: nearly 1 in 5 teachers statewide were not fully credentialed in 2022-23, with high-poverty schools experiencing 40% more unqualified teachers than higher-income schools. Students from low-income communities are twice as likely to be taught by teachers who lack full credentials in their subject area, inexperienced educators, and under-prepared teachers.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cResearch shows that teachers are the single most important school-based factor in student success, which is why we must support them at every stage of their careers,\u201d said\u00a0Marshall Tuck, CEO of EdVoice Institute<\/strong>. \u201cCalifornia can only deliver on its promise to give every child a high quality education if we have well-prepared teachers in every classroom.”<\/p>\n
