Instructions for District Office Estimated Teacher Hires

Instructions for reporting estimated number of teacher hires data on the 2017-18 California Basic Educational Data System (CBEDS) County/District Information Form (CDIF), Section B.

Instructions

Estimated Number of Teacher Hires (2018-19)

Report the projected or estimated number of teacher hires for the 2018–19 school year to fill new or vacated positions. A vacated position occurs if a teacher is expected to retire, resign, transfer, or begin a leave of absence.

Include information about classroom teaching positions and specialist positions, including those funded by local, state, or federal monies.

When reporting estimated teacher hires, do not include:

· Teachers expected to remain with the school in a new specialization.

· Administrative, guidance, media, library, health service, or noncertificated positions in “other specializations.”

Independently reporting charter schools are to report their estimated teacher hires on the SIF, so authorizing agencies should not include teacher hires from their independently reporting charter schools on the CDIF.
