Student Demographics, Teacher Sorting, and Teacher Quality: Evidence from the End of School Desegregation (2009, unknown): “…tend to have teachers with lower qualifications than low-poverty schools [Betts, Reuben and Danenberg (2000), Clotfelter, Ladd, Vigdor and Wheeler (2007), Lankford, Loeb, and Wyckoff (2002), Scafidi, Sjoquist and Stinebrickner (2007) Hanushek, Kain and Rivkin (2003), Hanushek and Rivkin (2004)].”
Can Good Principals Keep Teachers in Disadvantaged Schools? Linking Principal Effectiveness to Teacher Satisfaction and Turnover in Hard-to-Staff Environments (2011, background): “Similarly, Scafidi, Sjoquist, and Stinebrickner (2007) showed that teachers who stay in the same school in Georgia teach in schools with lower fractions of black students (0.37) and students in poverty (0.46) than do teachers who turn over (0.41 and 0.49, respectively).”
How Much Do School Principals Matter When It Comes to Teacher Working Conditions? (2017, background): “Researchers have consistently found that hard-to-staff schools have higher proportions of minority, low-income, or low-achieving students—students who are most likely in need of a supportive and stable school culture (Borman & Dowling, 2008; Clotfelter et al., 2007; Hanushek et al., 2004; Scafidi et”
Exploring commitment and turnover intentions among teachers : What we can learn from Hong Kong teachers (2015, background): “…of teachers to their schoolsmay be related to the band level inwhich they are teaching with teachers teaching in band 1 schools more professionally satisfied than those teaching in band 2 schools (see Harris & Adams, 2007 and Scafidi et al., 2007 for arguments supporting these assumptions).”
Principal Preferences and the Uneven Distribution of Principals Across Schools (2010, background): “Again, these findings mirror research on teachers' preferences for schools (see Boyd et al., 2005; Hanushek et al., 2004; Scafidi et al., 2008).”
Systematic Sorting (2013, background): “The authors find that less experienced, minority, and female teachers are assigned classes with lower achieving students than are their more experienced, white, and male colleagues.”
Racial Mismatch and School Type (2011, background): “While organizational structures are likely to influence turnover via job satisfaction (Lincoln and Kalleberg 1985; Pfeffer 1983; Price and Mueller 1981), characteristics such as racial composition of the workplace may also affect turnover directly (Scafidi, Sjoquist, and Stinebrickner 2007).”
