Abstract:Selected findings are presented from a survey designed to measure the needs, plans, and perceptions of teachers (N=1,000) in U.S. public schools. Faced with the responsibility for managing their school's budget with limited resources, most teachers would take several other actions before increasing class size or reducing their future salary increases. Mentor teachers and class size were seen as key factors in effective teaching. For teachers who may leave the profession, students' social problems and salary are major factors in their decision.
