Foundations Training is our 5-day training intensive designed to help Fellows build the skills and mindsets to create safe, welcoming classrooms. In a recent article, we dug into what we cover in Foundations Training and how our Fellows were able to actively apply what they learned.
We're so excited to share that TeachStart has landed in New Jersey! We're thankful for all the TeachStart Fellows who joined Foundational Training with commitment and drive to become exceptional teachers!
Congrats to our first-ever cohort in New Orleans for completing their Foundational Training! ๐๐ย Our TeachStart Fellows learned actionable tactics to apply in the classroom such as setting expectations, practicing cultural competency, and more!
TeachStart teams across California organized happy hours for Fellows in Los Angeles, Central Valley, and San Diego! They spent the evening celebrating Fellows' commitment to the classroom, with great food and even greater company. Thank you to all who joined us!
Weโre so proud of TeachStart Fellow Katie Dillard for sharing her story with The Hechinger Report. Katie is raising her son as a single parent, and thought that her dream of becoming a teacher would never come true; the barriers to the profession were too high. Weโre grateful she joined TeachStart, allowing her to teach and parent happily and healthily. Her op-ed explores how this type of accessible program allows her to be a stronger teacher and parent.
We celebrated the achievements of past and current TeachStart Fellows at multiple gatherings throughout California and Arizona. We're so proud of each and every Fellow! ๐
