Nearly half, or 45%, of public K-12 schools had at least one teacher vacancy as of October, according to government data released.

Roughly the same percentage of schools had a teacher vacancy in January, according to the National Center for Education Statistics’ School Pulse Panel survey that tracks schools’ responses to the Covid-19 pandemic – during which schools received a massive amount of federal relief funds. The average public school had two vacant teaching positions in October, and 4% of all public school teaching positions across the country were vacant, according to a survey of 990 schools.

About 57% of public schools in high-poverty neighborhoods had at least one teaching vacancy compared with 41% in low-poverty neighborhoods. And 60% of public schools with a high-minority student body had at least one teaching vacancy compared with 32% with a low-minority student body. During the pandemic, Congress authorized more than $190 billion to schools to help buildings stay open for in-person learning and help students catch up on learning.
