Have you ever found yourself thinking about how you could have an impact on your Northwest Indiana community after college? Have you ever thought about teaching?

 

Teach For America – an organization that recruits, trains, and provides ongoing coaching and support to recent college graduates and professionals who make a minimum two-year commitment to teaching – has been recruiting, placing and supporting teachers in Northwest Indiana since 2007.

 

Currently, there are nearly 40 TFA corps members (first- and second-year teachers), 12 alumni veteran teachers, and 5 alumni principals and assistant principals working in East Chicago, Hammond, and Gary traditional and charter public schools. As an alternative certification provider, Education and non-Education majors are eligible and encouraged to apply.

 

The final application deadline for the 2016 Teach For America Corps is March 4th.
