Join us for monthly “all calls” where we’ll dig into your most pressing questions as you consider your offer to join Teach For America. Get to know Teach For America staff, alumni, and your early admitted peers as we engage in honest dialogue around what life is like in the corps.
About
As 2021 early admitted corps members, you will have the opportunity to come together virtually every month around key questions you have about joining the corps. In May and June, Virtual Assemblies will serve as a “meet and greet,” where you’ll learn more about what it means to be a member of the pre-corps program and begin to build community with your fellow early admitted peers. Starting in July and continuing through the fall, Virtual Assemblies will serve as the primary gathering place to dig into topics that matter to you and get your questions answered. Topics will be dependent on the questions you bring but will range from things like understanding finances to getting a glimpse into what your ongoing training and support will look like.
Who Can Participate?
All 2021 early admitted corps members.
