In 2013, Teach For America and Guilford County Schools initiated a partnership wherein TFA corps members would be placed in some of the district’s highest needs schools. Now in its second year of this partnership, our region has grown to include 51 corps members, many of whom are from or attended college in North Carolina, across 17 schools. As a region, we are committed to serving as a partner and asset in the local movement to reform education, working relentlessly to ensure that all children are given access to opportunities that will unequivocally broaden their life trajectory.
