Teacher Advocacy

To support teachers by highlighting the critical importance of their work and amplifying their voices in policy debates about educational reform.

About this Project

Great teachers make great schools. Teachers are critically important to the success of our young people. They must be given the increased support they need to be more effective, and included not only on issues that impact their work directly, but in all areas of education reform.
