Research has shown all students benefit from having a diverse teaching staff. Research has also shown that students of color benefit tremendously (including better academic performance and increased likelihood of going to college) when there is a more diverse teacher workforce. Yet, many Colorado students may not have a single teacher of color in elementary, middle, or high school. Colorado classrooms have more than 49% BIPOC students, but 86% of teachers are white.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, we know that a large majority of schools across Colorado are struggling with teacher shortages, limiting the capacity of school teams and hindering the educational experience of students across the state.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stand Colorado has championed efforts to develop and pass, and now continue to advocate for, innovative policy solutions to address financial and other barriers to educators entering the workforce to ensure an expanded and more diverse educator workforce, <strong>which is critical for all of Colorado\u2019s students to experience just and supportive schools.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong>Policy Solutions\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In 2022, we were proud to champion legislation to remove barriers for educators entering the workforce.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/leg.colorado.gov\/bills\/HB22-1220\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HB22-1220<\/a> <strong>Removing Barriers to Educator Preparation<\/strong> removes barriers in educator preparation to support teacher candidates entering the workforce by supporting teacher candidates by paying them for their student teaching work, removing financial barriers by paying for teacher exam fees, expanding pathways to licensure by allowing multiple ways to demonstrate competency.
