Educator qualifications
These compare school against State rates of educators by their qualifications, who are: 1) inexperienced, 2) not in their field of qualifications, or 3) in an emergency or provisional position.
Educator equity
The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires us to compare and address disproportion of the rates at which low-income and minority students served by Title I are taught by inexperienced educators, out-of-field educators, or educators with emergency/provisional credentials.
Inexperienced educators
What does this mean?
Percentage of teachers, principals and school-level educational officers with one year or less of experience.
How was this calculated?
Percentage is the total of educators identified to have one year or less of experience, over the total of educators.
Out-of-field educators
What does this mean?
Percentage of teachers who are not licensed or State-certified for all subjects or grade levels taught.
How was this calculated?
Percentage is the total of educators identified to have not obtained State-certified credentials over the total of educators.
Educators with emergency/provisional credentials
What does this mean?
Teachers with at least a baccalaureate degree annually demonstrating active pursuit of obtaining a Hawaii teacher license and teaching in a position for which fully licensed teachers are not available.
