Teach for America

Teach For America is the national corps of outstanding recent college graduates from all academic backgrounds, who commit to teach for two years in urban and rural public schools and become lifelong leaders in expanding educational opportunity. Although 16 million American children face the extra challenges of poverty, an increasing body of evidence shows they can achieve at the highest levels. At Teach For America, we know the achievement gap can be closed.

This year, 10,000 corps member are teaching in 46 regions across the country, while nearly 28,000 Teach For America alumni continue working from inside and outside the field of education for the fundamental changes necessary to ensure educational excellence and equity.
