| Abstract: | Grow Your Own (GYO) is a teacher recruitment and preparation strategy focused on developing and retaining teachers from the local community. GYO is often used to address teacher shortages and strengthen the teacher workforce; it relies on local community pathways and reciprocal relationships between institutions of higher education, community organizations, and local school districts. Despite increasing interest and investment in GYO programs, little is known about the extent to which these programs achieve their purposes. The authors developed this research agenda to identify key questions and data sources that can be used to uncover how GYO programs shape education, influence teacher outcomes, affect school and district performance, improve student outcomes, and impact the larger community. |
