Beginning K-12 Teacher Characteristics and Preparation by School Type, 2009. Web Tables.

摘要

These Web Tables present estimates for the demographic characteristics and teaching preparation, including undergraduate coursetaking and certification, of 2007-08 baccalaureate degree recipients who taught at the K-12 level within a year of completing their bachelors degree. Teachers characteristics are shown both in comparison with nonteachers and by selected characteristics of the schools in which they were teaching or had most recently taught at the time of the 2009 interview. Schools are described in terms of the percentage of students who qualified for free or reduced-price lunch and school location (rural, suburban/town, or urban), race/ethnicity, and sector (public and private). The data used in the analysis are from the 2009 first follow-up of the 2008 Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B:08/09), a nationally representative sample of 2007-08 bachelors degree recipients who were first interviewed just before graduation and again 1 year later.
