Strategies and Approaches for Recruiting Indiana Teachers
Hoffman, Kerry; Mattson, Beverly
Region 8 Comprehensive Center
In the fall of 2021, the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) requested assistance from the Region 8 Comprehensive Center in finding research-based strategies for effectively recruiting teachers, especially teachers of color. This request stemmed from Indiana's growing difficulty in fully staffing schools, especially in high-need areas. This research report provides techniques and approaches to recruiting teachers that IDOE, districts, and schools might consider when planning recruitment efforts, especially those related to diversifying their teacher workforce. These include establishing educator pipelines for high schoolers and paraprofessionals, as well as financial incentives, innovative credentialing programs, and creatively connecting with potential teacher candidates, among others. While districts may not be able to utilize all of these approaches, this report provides information on a wide range of possibilities for teacher recruitment.
