New Dallas ISD teachers are training with veteran teachers as a part of the Teach for America program.
"I grew up in a home where sometimes we didn't have food," she said."I grew up in a home where sometimes I was holding a baby on my chest while I was writing a paper. I grew up in a home that was hard sometimes." "I had teachers that I could go to their classroom and hang out and really decompress," she explained.
So now, she's paying it forward by entering a DFW school next year through the Teach for America program, which works to reduce educational inequalities. To get prepared, this summer she and dozens of other new teachers are training with veteran Dallas ISD teachers. "With this partnership, Dallas ISD is able to provide TSA newcomers with the opportunity to have a real-world experience," Dallas ISD Director of Recruitment Steven Jackson said.
"The curriculum seems very specifically geared towards the types of communities that these teachers will actually be practicing in," Dallas ISD veteran teacher Aden Morgan said."After COVID, one of the things I personally noticed is there was an uptick in negative behavior among students. Some of the upticks in behavior might be persistent even as these teachers enter the workforce.
