This section requires the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, as part of the civil rights data collection under the Department of Education Organization Act (i.e., biennial survey of school conditions related to educational equity), to collect and publish specified data on the educator workforce (full-time teachers and principals) from local educational agencies (LEAs) and public schools. **(1)** For principals (per LEA), the data includes the number employed; median years of experience; and distribution by experience categories (<1 year, 1-<3 years, 3-<7 years, 7-<15 years, and 15+ years). **(2)** For teachers (per LEA and per school), the data includes the number employed; median years of teaching experience (excluding student teaching); distribution by experience categories (<1 year, 1-<2 years, 2-<5 years, 5-<10 years, 10-<20 years, and 20+ years); numbers meeting all state licensing/certification requirements (overall and by subject: math, science, English as a second language, special education); and numbers not meeting all requirements. All data must be disaggregated and cross-tabulated by race, ethnicity, and sex (subject to privacy protections). Following each applicable collection (those beginning on or after enactment), the Assistant Secretary must issue a special report on the OCR website summarizing state-level totals for principals and teachers—presented via percentages, graphs, or visuals—disaggregated by race, ethnicity, sex, and experience categories, with underlying data publicly accessible.
