Research shows that a diverse teacher workforce benefits all students -- especially historically underserved students in American education, in particular Black students. With a historic pool of federal education funds now available to help address the effects of the pandemic, school districts and states have a unique window of opportunity to transform education -- including by diversifying their workforce through recruiting, training, and retaining more Black and Hispanic teachers. This report considers the recruitment and retention strategies that states and districts can implement today. It is a road map for local education agencies (LEAs) and state education agencies (SEAs) to use American Relief Plan Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief III (ARP ESSER III) funds to build and sustain a high-quality teacher workforce that not only reflects all of America's public school students, but is also better equipped to meet their educational needs and raise academic achievement.
