The U.S. Department of Labor predicts that job opportunities for secondary school teachers will grow as fast as average for all careers through 2029, though opportunities will vary by region. Many teachers will reach retirement age over the next decade and will need to be replaced. Higher salaries will be necessary to attract new teachers and retain experienced ones, along with other changes such as smaller classroom sizes and safer schools. Other challenges for the profession involve attracting more men into teaching. The percentage of male teachers at this level continues to decline.
