520 | |a In this paper we summarize the findings from five separate papers, with the goal of providing a more complete picture than is normally possible in a single paper, of the extent to which the variation in teacher characteristics contributes to minority achievement gaps. All five papers are based on a rich administrative data set that includes information on all students and all teachers in North Carolina. We document the extent to which students in North Carolina are segregated by race not only across schools but also across classrooms within schools; the extent to which teachers with stronger qualifications are over represented not only in schools serving more advantaged students, but also in the classrooms serving such students within such schools; the extent to which various teacher characteristics affect student achievement, and finally, the extent to which North Carolina's relatively sophisticated school-based accountability program has exacerbated the challenges that low-performing schools face in retaining teachers. Together our findings clearly implicate the unequal distribution of teachers, as defined by their characteristics, as one of many factors that contribute to minority achievement gaps. Of particular importance is the uneven distribution of novice teachers across schools and classrooms. (Contains 6 tables, 3 figures, and 8 footnotes.) | ||
