Teach for America Survey

Posted by Admin On 11:35:00 AM 0 comments
The organization Students Consulting for Nonprofit Organizations (SCNO) at Georgia Tech is currently working with a great nonprofit, Teach For America. In order to help this organization, we are currently collecting data from students at Tech through a quick survey (literally less than 5 minutes). It would help out greatly if you would send an email to your students about this quick survey or just mention it in a newsletter so we can get as many responses as possible. With a larger data sample, we will be able to help Teach For America in a greater degree.The link is: http://goo.gl/forms/YWXV8HeSx9 


There will also be a drawing for a $10 Starbucks card from all those who fill out the survey.

October 23, 2014: 4:30 – 6:00 p.m. in Clough 323 - Teach for America “Appy Hour” (application prep). Drop-in event for students who have questions about applying and want feedback on how to strengthen their applications.

 Learn more about Teach For America by attending a webinar over winter break.

Introduction to Teach For America: December 19th from 7 to 8 PM EST. 
A session designed for those with limited prior knowledge about Teach For America. Learn about their mission and approach to closing the achievement gap. One of the corps members will talk about his or her experience. Includes Q&A session. Register here.

Teach for Georgia is a grant from the Georgia Race to the Top Innovation Fund and a great opportunity for Tech students and recent graduates who are interested in teaching. The state currently is experiencing a critical shortage of qualified teachers in secondary Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education. The shortage is particularly profound in rural areas. As a Georgia Tech student or alum, you are among the most highly qualified in the STEM fields and are able to help alleviate this problem. You can have the chance to have a positive influence on the lives of students by teaching a STEM subject in a rural Georgia high school for two years. Quality education should be accessible to all students regardless of socio-economic status or location.
Information session will be on November 1 in the Clough Commoms room 323.
