After the Corps
More than 20,000 Teach For America alumni are part of a growing force of leaders fulfilling our long-term mission by addressing the factors that contribute to educational inequity from every professional sector. Armed with a deep understanding of how this problem can be solved and the skills and networks needed to solve it, our alumni are helping to transform education for children in low-income communities.

"As Chancellor, I'm responsible for 146 schools and 50,000 students. I've built a committed team with the help of several Teach For America alumni. I'm trying to draw parents and the community back into a system that has disappointed them over the years. From my Teach For America experience, I know that significant progress is possible when you're goal oriented and hold high expectations for students. I'm dedicated to doing anything it takes to get students to succeed, just as I was during my years as a corps member."
