States report wide range of teacher quality
The AP writes that states vary from 16 percent in Alaska to near 99 percent in Wisconsin for classes taught by highly qualified teachers under the 2002 federal law. By 2005-06 all subjects must be taught by such teachers, with 39 states plus DC reporting data and 11 not reporting. Celia Sims notes the public will gain more involvement and spotlight on needed improvements.
