According to the National Education Association, the country's largest teachers union, the proportion of men in teaching is at its lowest level in 40 years. Only 21 percent of teachers in U.S. public schools are men. In early grades, the gender ratio is even more imbalanced just 9 percent of elementary school teachers are men.
