Teacher Residency
Parents, researchers, and - most of all - students know that great teachers are the key to success in school.
An innovative model of teacher recruitment and preparation, known as Teacher Residency, is helping to boost student achievement in challenged school districts across America. There are critical shortages of science, technology, math, and engineering (or STEM) teachers. At the same time, many people decide later in their professional life to begin a career in teaching. At the intersection of these challenges and opportunities is TEACH/Here: PEF's latest partnership to help recruit, train, place, and support excellent teachers in hard-to-fill math and science positions.
Visit the TEACH/Here website to learn more about this exciting opportunity.

“Due to the funds that were provided…
…for us by the Benwood Initiative, we’ve been able to provide some of the best research-based workshops for our teachers to implement reading strategies in the classroom, and we’ve established a literacy block which is two hours per day, every day, for all of our students.”
