Abstract

In this report, we draw on a decade of administrative data from four states (school years 2013-14 to 2023-24) to produce the first multi-state portrait of CTE teacher attrition during the COVID-19 era. Specifically, we document annual attrition for CTE teachers and their non-CTE peers, compare patterns across three distinct COVID-19 phases, and identify the states where losses were most acute. This analysis lays the foundation for our future research on this topic, which will examine which career clusters were hardest hit and what state, district, and labor market factors predict higher attrition.
