This report presents selected findings from the 2024 State of the American Teacher survey, an annual survey of kindergarten through grade 12 public school teachers across the United States. The findings focus on teacher well-being and a small set of high-interest factors related to teacher retention: sources of job-related stress, pay, hours worked, and teachers' intentions to leave their current jobs. The authors track teachers' reported well-being over time and compare teachers' responses with those of comparable working adults. The findings in this report are descriptive and intended to inform federal, state, and local education leaders and policymakers about the state of the teacher workforce, although the authors note that teachers' perceptions and experiences likely vary by state and locality.
