Black Teachers in Indiana: A Potential Shortage?

Kirby, Sheila Nataraj; Hudson, Lisa

Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, v15 n2 p181-94 Sum 1993

Uses Indiana public school file data to examine African-American representation in the state's teaching force, including entry and attrition. An aging African-American teaching force, attrition resulting from retirement, and a decreasing proportion of new African-American hires suggests that representation may become a concern unless active recruitment is implemented.
