Teach for America identifies top leaders across the country and then places them in some of the most underserved, low-income schools, where they teach for a minimum of two years. They've placed hundreds of teachers in Dallas ISD with about 1,500 total across itsThe organization has helped fill the gaps during the teacher shortage but right now, they're working on a bigger goal of keeping that pipeline of teachers diverse.
The teachers go through training and learning to gain an understanding of the rich cultures, histories, and assets that already exist within the students and families in that neighborhood or community. That aligns with what Dallas ISD’s recruitment team has really been trying to focus on lately. About 90 percent of the student population is either Black or Latino.
