Partial list. Partial listed-record coverage: DOES posts WARN notices on its annual table when received, but the table does not certify that every notice is listed or how current it is. Rows are dated by the published Notice Date (the day DOES received the notice); effective layoff dates and ranges are kept as published and never used as notice dates. "TBD" and amended worker counts are unknown. No month or District total is treated as complete; missing records are unknown, not zero.

AI & this occupation
Across 4 research exposure measures, Career/technical education teachers, secondary school is in the middle technical AI exposure band based on the mean of the available source-specific percentile ranks. Exposure describes how much of the work the studied AI capabilities could technically assist with; it is not a forecast of job loss.
The saved Anthropic task-exposure benchmark records a zero index for this occupation. This is not proof of no AI use; the observation window is not recorded in this saved release.
In the task mix derived from the March 27, 2025 Anthropic release, 53.4% followed automation patterns (AI completing a directed task), based on 13 matched tasks.
JobMarketHealth has not measured an AI effect on this occupation's employment or wages, and these figures do not enter its scores; there is no clear evidence of displacement in the data shown here.
As published by the OECD: the gap between what the occupation demands (0-5) and current AI capability in each domain. A lower gap means AI is closer to the requirement (higher potential exposure); 0 means AI already meets it or the domain is not relevant.
From the Census 2025-26 BTOS AI Supplement (all industries; businesses whose employees used generative AI). Census did not measure Career/technical education teachers, secondary school specifically.
In the Census BTOS core AI-use question, an estimated 34.1% of District of Columbia employer businesses reported using AI in the two weeks ending 2026-10-04 (U.S.: 24.6%).
Separately, the one-time 2025-26 BTOS AI Supplement (collected 2025-11-17 to 2026-02-08) found 23.0% of District of Columbia businesses using AI at that time, and 24.6% reporting that employees used generative AI for work tasks in the prior six months. It describes how AI was being used then, not a trend.
Using each occupation's exposure band and District of Columbia employment weights (OEWS May 2025), 40.3% of covered jobs are in occupations in the higher-exposure band. This describes the state's occupation mix, not a measured AI effect.
Exposure and observed usage are separate measures and neither equals job loss. Census BTOS figures are business-level surveys and are not occupation-specific.
