This study looked at the data gathered during the 1987-88 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) which was a nationl survey of elementary and secondary schools. The target populations for the SASS were school administrators (principals and heads), and classroom teachers in public and private elementary/secondary schools. The survey design consisted of two parallel but essentially separate schemes, one for the public schools and one for the private (nonpublic) schools. The components of SASS were (1) Survey of Teacher Demand and Shortage (TDS), (2) Survey of Schools (3) Survey of School Administrators, and (4) Teacher Survey. Approximately 13,000 schools and administrators, 65,000 teachers, and 5,600 Local Education Agencies (LEA's) composed the SASS sample
