Teacher and School Leader Shortages: Quantity, Quality, and Diversity

The US has been talking about post-pandemic educator shortages for two years with no widely-recognized solution or innovation in addressing them, in either the short or long term. This is the moment for states and districts to solve for the current crisis while also building for the future.

Join members of the One Million Teachers of Color (1MTOC) Campaign for a panel discussion focused on teacher and school leader shortages, through the lens of how practitioners and policymakers must focus on three areas of the educator pipeline in order to fortify it now and in the future: quantity, quality, and diversity.

Panelists for this panel include:
• Sharif El Mekki, Founder & CEO, Center for Black Educator Development
• Lynn Jennings, Senior Director of National and State Partnerships, The Education Trust
• Kim Oliver, Vice President of Policy, Advocacy, and Community Coalitions, TNTP
• Harrison Peters, Co-Founder & CEO, Men of Color in Educational Leadership

Steering Committee members of the One Million Teachers of Color Campaign include: TNTP, The Education Trust, Center for Black Educator Development, Men of Color in Educational Leadership, The Hunt Institute, Latinos for Education, New Leaders, and Teach Plus.
