When Teach For America joined the movement in Milwaukee in 2009, it joined a community determined to change the status quo. Organizations like Pearls For Teen Girls, Schools That Can Milwaukee, PAVE, Public Allies, Common Ground, Boys & Girls Club, and many others work toward a community-wide vision for Milwaukee. They continue to prove that collective efforts will provide our students with the education they deserve.
