Uncertified Teachers Dashboards

The Uncertified Teachers Dashboards present statewide estimates on the amount and proportion of uncertified teachers. This data is aggregated by School System, Region, School System Geographic Type, and Subject-Grade Level.

Version 1: The data on this page reflects all available information through the most recently available academic year. It is best viewed on a desktop screen. The visualizations are generated by the Power BI application and best practices have been made to follow WCAG 2.0 standards. Specific keyboard commands are needed to access and navigate through the data which are not the standard keyboard commands some screen readers use. You can press Shift + ? to access keyboard shortcuts.

Academic years are between September 1st through August 31st. This data spans from the academic years 2020-2021 until the most recently available reporting year.

This dashboard was generated using these Business Rules.
