Abstract: States and local education systems hold the primary responsibility for delivering public education in the United States. During the past several years, the quality of the American education system has become national policy priority, replete with school reform efforts designed to hold all students to high standards, increase student achievement, and staff schools with highly qualified and talented education professionals. This brief begins with an explanation of seven common practices used to address educator shortages, followed by state examples of these practices. Then, practices of select "key" states are highlighted. Key states are locales with demographics similar in many ways to areas in Colorado that are experiencing the most critical educator workforce shortages. This report provides a general context for the educator workforce shortage issue in the state and features a promising practice being implemented by the state or one of its local districts. Then, examples of how key states are tackling educator shortages specifically in the context of COVID-19 are provided, followed by a state-by-state crosswalk of efforts to recognize, address, and mitigate educator shortages that highlights overall themes and state strategies, organized by region. A conclusion section, resources section featuring strategies states and school districts might employ to address educator shortages, and reference list close out the brief.
