Abstract	Far too often, conversations about diversifying the teacher pipeline are left to district and school leaders. Conversely, too little conversation is grounded in the kinds of policy changes at the state level that are foundational to giving local and district leaders the tools to attract, recruit, and retain a diverse teacher workforce. This article aims to fill gaps in the literature concerning state-level leaders' role in creating policy to build a diverse educator pipeline. If school and district leaders are going to diversify the teacher pipeline, state-level leaders will need to examine their current policies and practices to make sweeping, innovative policy changes that are critical to build a diverse pipeline of teachers. Recognizing the critical role state education agencies play in shaping policy to inform school and district leaders' behavior, this paper provides recommendations for state education agencies to diversify the teacher pipeline. First, this paper highlights the literature around barriers to diversify the teacher pipeline. Second, this paper examines the role state education agency leaders play in diversifying the teacher pipeline. Finally, this paper provides five recommendations for state-level leaders to advance policies to grow the pipeline of diverse teachers. (As Provided).
