Baltimore City Teaching Residency
Lauren Thurmond's Company Details
We prepare exceptional teachers for the students who need them most – those in our country's most underserved communities, where systemic inequities and individual prejudices deny too many students access to a great education. For the Baltimore City Teaching Residency that place is Baltimore. Our teachers acknowledge the immense challenges of poverty but reject its limitations. They believe every lesson has the power to inspire, every hour in the classroom is precious, and every student has the potential to succeed. They know that having even one top teacher can shape students' lives well into the future.It's not easy to defy the odds, and great teaching doesn't happen overnight. Our teachers develop the skills to help students build their knowledge by making meaningful connections between challenging, meaningful content and students' unique values and experiences.Our programs aren't for everyone. We believe teaching is a privilege and we hold the highest standards of any training program in America. But those who rise to meet them join an elite group of educators, more than 35,000 strong. Together they are proving the transformative power of great teaching, and proving what's possible in public education. We call them TBaltimore City Teaching Residents!
