Why Join?

Just 1 in 10 of our African American eighth graders are proficient in math.

Mastering basic math skills - dividing numbers, measuring area, or reading a graph - is critical to finishing school and having the opportunity to attend college. In a nation founded on principles of equality, Nashville's schools have not delivered on the promise of an equal education for all.

Who We Want

Are you ready to take on the greatest challenge of your life?

Years of research have shown that when it comes to raising student achievement, nothing matters more than the quality of the teacher at the front of the class. We're looking for exceptional, dedicated individuals who will become effective long-term teachers in Nashville.
