The California State University continues to provide leadership in credentialing high quality teachers for California's K-12 diverse classrooms. During 2002-03, the CSU provided 55 percent of all the new teachers prepared in the state (CCTC, April 2003). In addition, the Teacher Education Annual Evaluation (April 2005) reaffirms the quality of these new teachers prepared by the CSU. For example:

• Principals reported that 83 percent of CSU graduates are well prepared or adequately prepared to teach reading, and 85 percent to teach mathematics.



• In 2004, 85 percent of first year K-12 teachers reported that their CSU preparation helped them learn to teach English learners effectively.



• Principals reported that 96 percent of CSU's teaching graduates are well or adequately prepared to know and understand the subjects of the curriculum at their grade level.
