Celebrating 30 Years In Houston
For the past 30 years, Teach For America has brought talented and motivated leaders to teach in under-resourced schools, and many of those leaders have gone on to lead some of our city's greatest education initiatives. Teach For America corps members and alumni: • teach in over 600 classrooms; • have founded/lead more than 20 local education non-profits (including BridgeYear, DiscoverU, EMERGE, Families Empowered, Good Reason Houston, Latinos for Education, OneGoal, and ProUnitas) • lead 3 districts as superintendents (KIPP Houston, YES Prep, and Yellowstone Academy); and • are school leaders in over 40 public schools (including +50% of KIPP and YES Prep)
