Educators Rising

Rethinking Teacher Recruitment & Preparation:

It’s time for a new approach to teacher recruitment and development. Far too many teachers enter the classroom without adequate skills and experience, and students are facing the long-term consequences.

Educators Rising is transforming how America develops aspiring teachers. Starting with high school students, we provide passionate young people with hands-on teaching experience, sustain their interest in the profession, and help them cultivate the skills they need to be successful educators. The result is a pipeline of accomplished teachers who are positioned to make a lasting difference — not only in the lives of their students, but also in the field of teaching more broadly.

Every teacher should enter the profession with the necessary skills. Educators Rising is a powerful way to help communities grow the next generation of well-prepared teachers. --EducatorsRising.org

Educators Rising at Walker Valley:

Educators Rising at Walker Valley will work in conjunction with the "Teaching as a Profession" courses offered on campus. Educators Rising will give students opportunities outside of the classroom to further their passion for the Education Profession. See Mrs. Pope in CL1 for an application and more details!
