Goldhaber, Dan; Grout, Cyrus; Holden, Kristian; Brown, Nate – Center for Education Data & Research, 2015
Barriers to the cross-state mobility of the teacher workforce can have undesirable effects on the teacher workforce and student outcomes.

Numerous headlines over the last few years highlight the difficulties that the state faces in developing, recruiting, and, ultimately, hiring enough teachers (Blume, 2016; Apodaca, 2017; Calefati, 2017; Carver-Thomas & Darling-Hammond, 2017; Times…

We examine attrition and mobility of teachers using teacher value-added measures for…
