Using Your Data
Replacing a poor teacher with an average one would raise a single classroom’s lifetime income earnings by about $266,000, economists estimate. Multiply that by a career’s worth of classrooms.

Using Your Data
“Elementary and middle school teachers who help raise their students’ standardized test scores seem to have a wide-ranging, lasting positive effect on those students’ lives beyond academics, including lower teenage pregnancy rates, and greater college matriculation and adult earnings.”
