More importantly, limiting opportunities is bad for kids. I don't think anyone would argue that schools should work to engage & challenge students. Eliminating advancement opportunities is a fast path to disengagement for students who could excel.

1st, this is a huge issue, especially in some blue cities like Seattle (where I am). But it's broader than just G&T in that it speaks to advanced course-taking opportunities (e.g., algebra in SF). Seems like bad politics to limit opportunities for students to advance, &

@dqcdata.bsky.social, I think you might be interested in the supply brief as it seems a great way for states to leverage their SLDSs!

These were fun to do b/c they offer really practical advice about how to better utilize (mostly) existing data, so hopefully become more efficient + I got to work w/ a great set of co-authors!

These briefs describe concrete ways to use SLDSs (on the supply side) and job posts/web scraping (on the demand side) to get a better/quicker assessment of the state of the teacher labor market.

Happy to announce that @caldercenter.bsky.social just released two IES-funded briefs - they really are BRIEF! - about how to get a better handle on teacher demand and future teacher supply:

They actually mention those (briefly) in the discussion! I don't know much about it, but apparently this has been a successful strategy in Britain.
