A.PURPOSE

The purpose of this study of Appalachian teachers was to provide data and interpretations that will help policy makers to improve the quality and quantity of teachers in Appalachia. Data were obtained in order to provide information leading to the development of programs which will improve teacher recruitment, training, retraining, and retention within the Appalachian region.

B.METHOD

Questionnaires were sent to a 20% random stratified sample of the approximately 162,000 teachers in the Appalachian portions of eleven states:

Alabama

Kentucky

Maryland

Mississippi

New York

North Carolina

Ohio

Pennsylvania

South Carolina

Tennessee

West Virginia

The questionnaire was developed on the basis of our previous experience, recommendations from the ARC Education Staff, interviews with Appalachian teachers, and the review of the Appalachian Education Manpower Committee. Questionnaires were identified with unique serial numbers, and records were kept of which questionnaires went to which Local Development Districts (LDD's), schools, and states. The questionnaires, distributed in September and October of 1969, asked teachers about their educational background, their teaching experience, their present teaching position and background questions about themselves.
