Abstract
Teacher migration is analyzed using Missouri beginning teacher survey data. A simultaneous equations model involving qualitative and limited dependent variables is developed. Earnings equations which account for self-selectivity are estimated for migrant and non-migrant teachers. They support the conventional human capital theory of migration. Teacher migration is most strongly influenced by home ownership and the leadership style of the school administrator.
