The Teaching Policy Fellowship engages early-career teachers in work on issues related to the future of the teaching profession. The program is rigorous and selective, admitting only 20 teachers for the 18 month commitment. Teaching Policy Fellows are current classroom teachers who meet monthly to interact directly with education policy leaders and research experts; analyze education reform initiatives; study innovative practices; and advocate for reforms that would retain them in the profession. Fellows gain knowledge of education policy and then use that knowledge, along with their unique perspective as classroom teachers, to formulate ideas with peers. The work will result in a series of policy briefs, events, and speaking appearances that articulate the voice of early-career teachers on the future of the profession.

  • Selective 18-month fellowship for 20 outstanding early career teachers

  • Monthly four-hour sessions with expert speakers, coursework, and working groups

  • Address the question: What policies would retain you in the profession?

  • $2,400 stipend over 18 months

  • Applications are now open in Memphis and Chicago.  Apply now!

The T3 Initiative is an innovative program to recruit, develop, and support effective, experienced teachers to serve in our lowest performing schools. This program was designed by teachers to address the problem of inequitable access to effective teachers in the highest need schools.

The T3 Initiative:

  • creates cohorts of highly effective and experienced teachers

  • supports them in becoming turnaround specialists

  • places them in teams in the schools in which they are most needed

 

The T3 Initiative is among the first efforts nationally to address this notable deficiency in the design of school turnaround. Nationally, there is currently an intense focus on chronically low-performing schools. These schools are the focus of intensive support and innovative strategies to enable them to significantly raise student outcomes. T3 teachers play a central role in helping to transform these schools, having been chosen for their effectiveness with urban students and trained in a cohort for the challenge of a turnaround environment.
