Data Source: California Dept. of Education, Staff Assignment and Course Data (Jan. 2020).
Footnote: Years presented are the final year of a school year (e.g., 2018-19 is shown as 2019). Examples of 'other personnel' include resource specialists, special education therapists, psychometrists, and other medical professionals. The notation S refers to data that have been suppressed because the number of full-time equivalent personnel was greater than 0 but less than 1. Due to a change related to teacher-librarian reporting, 'librarian / library media teacher' data for years 2016 and later also have been suppressed. Some personnel reported as 'librarian' in 2015 and earlier years may be reported as 'other personnel' beginning in 2016. N/A means that data are not available.
