Teach For America is the national corps of outstanding recent college graduates and working professionals - of all academic majors, backgrounds and career interests - who commit two years to teach in urban and rural public schools and become lifelong leaders for expanding educational opportunity for all children.

Each year, Teach For America selects a diverse corps of individuals who have the skills and commitment to make a real impact on the academic prospects of students growing up today in low-income communities, and to exert long term leadership in the effort to eliminate educational inequity. Teach For America corps members receive extensive training, a full salary and benefits, as well as continual support through a two-year professional development program to ensure their success as teachers and beyond.

Today there are more than 14,000 Teach For America alumni working in a variety of sectors, including business, education, law, medicine, and public policy. Please visit our website to learn more about our graduate school and employer partnerships:
