Abstract: The Tennessee Educator Survey (TES) is a comprehensive annual effort between the Tennessee Department of Education (department) and the Tennessee Education Research Alliance (TERA) used to gather information about the experiences of educators across the state and empowers stakeholders and decision-makers to meet the needs of teachers to the best of their ability. The survey provides teachers, school leaders, and certified staff the opportunity to share what is working and opportunities for improvement in public education in Tennessee. The TES intends to give policymakers and researchers key insights on topics including teacher satisfaction, preparedness, workload, and engagement with key education initiatives. This report highlights the major takeaways from the 13th annual TES administered in spring 2024. Housing over a decade's worth of information, the TES continues to build on years of data on policy implementation strategies, providing insights on where Tennessee has been and where it may go as a state to continue to attract and retain educators. Key policies included in the TES have historically been around state standards and assessments, instructional materials, planning time, and teacher evaluations. More recently, additional key topics included school funding, teacher licensure initiatives, teacher retention, career and technical education, and learning acceleration implementation. Several takeaways from the 2024 TES are related to the state's bold policies and initiatives to boost student achievement and outcomes, including the Tennessee Literacy Success Act, Tennessee Learning Loss Remediation and Student Acceleration Act, Reading 360, TN ALL Corps, Career and Technical Education (CTE) and Innovative School Models (ISM), and the Tennessee Investment in Student Achievement (TISA) Act.
