Strengthening Educator Workforce Data Act

HR 7250, the Strengthening Educator Workforce Data Act, requires the U.S. Department of Education to collect and publish detailed data about public school teachers and principals. It mandates school districts to report specific metrics, including years of teaching/principal experience (broken into categories like "less than 1 year" or "15+ years"), certification status, subject-area expertise (e.g., math, special education), and demographic breakdowns by race, ethnicity, and gender. The data must be published in an accessible report with visualizations like graphs and made publicly available online. This law applies to all public elementary and secondary schools and aims to provide transparency on educator workforce composition without changing existing certification requirements.
