Teach For America returns to metro Detroit. Help us spread the good news!
For more than
two
years, United Way
has worked to build partnerships, secure alternative teacher
certification, as well as funding and placements needed to bring Teach
for America back to Detroit. On May 4, 2010, that vision became reality as Teach
for America announced its return to Detroit, bringing top college
graduates to teach in some of the state's highest-need schools for the
2010-2011 school year.
But we didn't do it alone.
It is
only because of your
support that we can claim this victory. We would like to
thank you for speaking out and for ensuring a brighter future for metro
Detroit children!
As is always the case, this victory will not
come without its detractors. Over the next week there will be much said
in the press about Teach for America's return to Detroit - some
positive, some not-so-positive.
We ask that you continue to stand strong for metro Detroit children and speak out in support of this monumental victory.
