Nevertheless, the overall employment outlook for teachers remains bright. Nearly all reform efforts endorse the concept of smaller class sizes. And as long as the population keeps growing, teachers will continue to be needed.

The BLS predicts:

Employment of kindergarten and elementary school teachers is expected to grow by 17 percent from 2010 to 2020, about as fast as the average for all occupations. Growth is expected because of both declines in student–teacher ratios and increases in enrollment. However, employment growth will vary by region.
