Teacher Moonlighting and Attrition in Texas.
Henderson, David L.; And Others
A report is given on the third in a series of biannual surveys of Texas public school teachers. A comparison is made between findings in 1984 and data collected in 1980 and 1982 from a sample of 500 teachers. Findings indicate that more than a fourth of Texas teachers moonlight during the academic year. Nearly 40 percent of the respondents were seriously considering leaving the profession. While salaries have increased since 1980, they are still insufficient and it is predicted that there will be a severe teacher shortage in the future. Major findings from the three surveys are presented in a table and the questionnaire is appended. (JD)
