The survey provides teachers, administrators, and certified staff the opportunity to share their experiences and perceptions about what is working and what improvements should be made in Tennessee schools. These insights offer policymakers and researchers critical feedback to better meet the needs of teachers and students.  \nKey topics included in the TES have historically focused on school culture, state standards and assessments, instructional materials, and teacher evaluations, while also including annual questions on timely issues. This report highlights the major takeaways from the 14th annual TES administered in spring 2025 in eight areas:  \nmath curriculum and supports, teacher evaluation, earlycareer teacher supports, teacher retention, student discipline, career and technical education, cell phones, and artificial intelligence.  \nTDOE aims to set all Tennessee students on a path to success through strategic policies and strong practices.  \nVisit the TES website to explore survey results at the state, district, and school levels at [educatorsurvey.tnk12.gov](educatorsurvey.tnk12.gov).  \nAbout the TES  \nAdministered under a partnership between the department and TERA, the TES is the state’s most comprehensive tool forgathering input from Tennessee teachers and administrators. For over a decade, the TES has provided Tennessee with valuable insight into educator’s perceptions of practice, policy, and school climate across the state. The TES is a key initiative in the partnership between TERA and the department. TERA, a researchpractice partnership based out of Vanderbilt University, conducts high-quality, rigorous research to encourage evidence-driven decisionmaking across the department’s strategic plan.  \nThe department understands the importance of using evidence-based decisions to close gaps, provide resources for educators, strategically invest in proven initiatives, and accelerate student academic achievement. TERA’s research highlights much of the work of the department, including ways to recruit, prepare, support, and retain educators. By utilizing the strong connections and data capabilities of an institution such as Vanderbilt, TERA provides the department with valuable support in administering and collecting TES results.  \n© Tennessee Department of Education • 3  \nTennessee Educator Survey · 2025 Overview  \nTennessee Educator Survey · 2025 Overview  \nSurvey Data   \nThe following analyses use dat","cbCaioawTAOyeeqJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioawTAOyeeqJ","pdf",1756961,33,"English","# Introduction\n# About the TES\n# Survey Data\n# Math Curriculum and Supports\n# Teacher Evaluation\n# Early-Career Teachers\n# Teacher Retention\n# Discipline\n# Career and Technical Education (CTE)\n# Cell Phones\n# Artificial Intelligence (AI)\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What is the Tennessee Educator Survey (TES) and who conducts it?\",\"answer\":\"The TES is an annual survey conducted by the Tennessee Department of Education in partnership with the Tennessee Education Research Alliance (TERA).
