Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

Missouri's First Year Educator Survey

Missouri Report

Survey:
Beginning school year:
Ending school year:
When running the report, the "beginning school year" should be the calendar year of that spring. (For example, if the first year of teaching/counseling/leadership was Fall 2020 and Spring 2021, then the "beginning school year" for that report would be 2021. If you are running the report for that year of first-year teachers/counselors/principals only, choose the "ending school year" as 2021 as well.)
Notes:
  • Between 2015 and 2022, Questions 44-50 were used to collect information about mentoring practices. These questions were replaced in 2023 with Questions 51-57. Data generated by these questions only reported in the years in which the specific quesitons were included in the survey.
  • Questions 39a, 39b, and 39c were added in 2024 to gather data on literacy instruction. Beginning in 2026, respondents were directed to only answer these questions if they had completed a preparation program in the areas of Elementary Education, Early Childhood Education, and Special Education. Data reported in 2026 and later, then, represents answers provided by a smaller and more specifically-defined cohort.
