! Interpret data with caution. The coefficient of variation (CV) for this estimate is between 30 percent and 50 percent (i.e., the standard error is at least 30 percent and less than 50 percent of the estimate).

¹Schools that did not participate in the free or reduced-price lunch program in the 2020–21 school year are included with the "0–34" percent category.

NOTE: Data are weighted estimates of the population. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. “Movers” are teachers who were still teachers in the 2021–22 school year but had moved to a different school from their 2020–21 school. Approximately 7.9 percent of public school teachers in the 2020-21 school year moved to a new school for 2021-22.
