Abstract	The "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" examines what is arguably the single most powerful authority over the teaching profession: state government. This New Mexico edition of the National Council on Teacher Quality's (NCTQ's) "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" is the first of what will be an annual look at the status of state policies impacting the teaching profession. It is hoped that this report will help focus attention on areas where state policymakers could make improvements to benefit both students and teachers. This policy evaluation is broken down into six areas that include a total of 27 goals. Broadly, these goals examine the impact of state policy on the preparation, certification, licensure, compensation and effectiveness of teachers across the elementary, secondary and special education spectra. New Mexico's progress toward meeting these goals is summarized. Overall, New Mexico has done a good job in meeting some of NCTQ's goals, but there is considerable work that needs to be done in all areas. New Mexico completely missed eight goals, met a small portion of eight, partially met seven, nearly met one and fully met three. New Mexico has stronger general education requirements for elementary teacher candidates than most other states, although there are still gaps in essential areas. The state, however, needs to work to improve other areas of teacher preparation, especially its program approval process. The body of the report provides a more detailed breakdown of the state's strengths and weaknesses in each area. Detailed rationale and "Food for Thought" for each area and corresponding goal are appended. (Contains 72 figures.) [Additional funding for this first edition of the "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" was provided by the Achelis Foundation, Bodman Foundation, Daniel's Fund, Fisher Family Foundation, Gleason Foundation, and The Teaching Commission. This state report is part of NCTQ's State Teacher Policy Yearbook series. For the national summary, see ED506661.] (ERIC).
