Since 2011, Teach For America has contributed to the work to make an excellent education possible for all children in Washington State. Our region has one of the fastest-growing economies in the U.S., contrasted by a public education system ranked 31st in the country. While potential is evenly distributed, access to opportunity is not, particularly for those in marginalized communities.
Creating enduring change in education requires the dedication and vision of exceptional leaders who are undeterred by the challenges facing our education system and intimately understand their local context. Alongside our passionate, talented alumni and corps members, we know we can make a difference for kids in Washington.
Where Our Corps Members Teach
Our corps members primarily work in South King County in the Federal Way and Renton public school areas.
