DESCRIPTION
Equitable Distribution of Teachers The No Child Left Behind Act requires states have plans to ensure schools provide instruction by highly qualified instructional staff and to ensure that poor and minority children are not taught at higher rates than other children by inexperienced, unqualified, or out-of-field teachers. Highly qualified teachers are those who hold at least a bachelor's degree, are fully licensed or certified by the state in the subjects they teach, and can demonstrate competence in the subjects they teach. Currently, 99.70% of all courses in Kentucky are taught by highly qualified teachers.

The Importance of Equitable Access to Effective
Educators
Why is equitable access important?
Research has shown that the most important factor affecting student learning is the teacher.
Not only does teacher quality matter when it comes to how much students learn, but also a teacher's effectiveness stays with students for years to come.
