Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
For the last three years, we have been involved in a study that follows beginning secondary science teachers during their first, second, and third years of teaching. This study, which is funded by the National Science Foundation, ultimately aims to explore the development of beginning secondary science teachers. While we are just beginning the analysis of this data, we have data that depicts and describes science teachers who are in their first year of teaching and who are staying in the profession (), moving to different locations (), or leaving the field altogether (). This research report ultimately gives more insight into first‐year science teachers and their job situations. stayers movers leavers
