The 2025 State of the American Teacher survey has released its findings, shedding light on various aspects of teacher well-being and retention. This annual survey, conducted among kindergarten through grade 12 public school teachers in the United States, focuses on critical issues such as job-related stress, pay, hours worked, and teachers' intentions to leave their current positions.
According to the report, these findings are descriptive and aim to provide valuable insights for federal, state, and local education leaders and policymakers regarding the condition of the teaching workforce. However, it is noted that teachers' perceptions and experiences may differ depending on their specific state or locality.
The authors have tracked changes in teachers' reported well-being over time while also comparing their responses with those of similar working adults.
