Abstract	This report is a complete analysis of employment trends in K-12 education. The report provides detailed information on Alaska public school enrollment, Alaska's teaching work force, the supply of teachers from local universities, and the current composition and turnover rates and reasons of Alaska teachers. The near-term demand for teachers is not expected to increase greatly, based on population projections. Teacher turnover also is relatively stable statewide, though it is arguable whether the rate is too high or is acceptable. In addition, turnover varies greatly across the state, and certain districts and regions face potentially far greater impacts from high turnover. Finally, the supply of educators trained within the state is increasing. Still, despite the growth in teacher training reported above, it is very clear that in-state institutions cannot meet the state's current need for educators. Moreover, increasing teacher education capacity alone will not resolve this problem. The number of Alaskans seeking careers as educators, either as first-time college students or as career changers, also needs to increase significantly. (Contains 18 tables and 16 figures.)
