State Teaching Job Initiatives
The Texas Association of School Personnel Administrators (TASPA) publishes a calendar of Texas Independent School District (ISD) job fairs, as well as a list of ISD employment websites. Many schools in Texas also use the online job bank SchoolSpring when hiring for Texas teaching jobs. SchoolSpring updates its listing of teaching jobs in Texas daily, and allows individuals to easily browse education jobs in Texas by region and specialty. The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) estimates that teaching will be the fastest growing occupation in Texas for at least the next 5-10 years, and provides its own resources for individuals in search of teaching jobs in Texas.

Texas ranked 29th in the nation in 2007 with an average teacher salary of $45,392. Texas follows a minimum salary schedule for teachers, beginning with $27,320 for first-year teachers, and ending with a $44,270 minimum for teachers with 20 or more years of teaching experience. Texas rewards its best teachers with the Texas Educator Excellence Award and District Awards for Teacher Excellence.
