Abstract	Washington State struggles to retain qualified and diverse teachers. This teacher shortage is particularly acute in rural areas. To address this issue, the 2019 State Legislature directed the Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC) to produce a report with policy recommendations for increasing student teachers' field placement in rural areas (under Section 204 of E2SHB 1139.SL). This may create a teacher pipeline for rural districts and lead to more teachers in rural schools. This policy brief provides recommendations to encourage teacher preparation programs approved by the Washington Professional Educator Standards Board to develop relationships with school districts that are not in their general geographic area (i.e., rural districts) and to provide supervisory support for student teachers' field placement in these school districts.
