Lindsay, Constance A. – State Education Standard, 2021
Given the evidence of positive effects on students of having at least one teacher who shares their race or ethnicity, state boards of education, other state policymakers, and school leaders need to recognize teachers' race and ethnicity as markers of teacher quality. Whether purposefully or not, education systems have long defined teacher quality…

Johnson, Richard W.; Southgate, Benjamin G. – Urban Institute, 2014

Koski, William S.; Tang, Aaron – Policy Analysis for California Education, PACE (NJ3), 2011
