The purpose of this study was to investigate if differences in perceived professional self-efficacy were due to various demographic characteristics for educators in a rural East Texas school district. Participants in this study were full-time teachers within the school district. The district consists of 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school serving approximately 2000 students with 144 full-time teaching staff. Eighty teachers participated in the study by completing an online survey that captured teacher demographic information and efficacy perceptions. Only seventy-four of the surveys were used for data analysis. Correlations were conducted to determine if there was a relationship between each of the demographic variables (years of experience, content area taught, grade level taught, certification pathway, and teacher performance rating) and overall teacher efficacy. Correlations were also run to establish the relationship between the demographic variables and the three efficacy subscales (efficacy for instruction, efficacy for management, and efficacy for engagement). The results of the study demonstrated statistically significant relationships between years of experience and overall teacher efficacy. A similar statistically significant relationship was present between years of experience and the three efficacy subscales. Additionally, a statistically significant relationship was observed between teacher performance rating and efficacy for instruction. The impact of this study can help districts to improve teacher efficacy perceptions by developing comprehensive professional development activities that promote retention and instructional growth. By building teacher capacity and influencing teacher longevity, districts can improve student performance and district success.
