|  Capital Teaching Residency Building the Next Generation of Great Teachers | | | | | Next Deadline: Friday, January 24, 2014 | |  "The single biggest influence on student achievement is the quality of the teacher."
-Arne Duncan, US Secretary of Education
Have you ever thought about teaching? What if you became part of the movement for public education reform in our nation's capital? We believe teachers are the most important lever in improving student outcomes and closing the achievement gap. Join us in making a difference by submitting an online application for the Capital Teaching Residency. The Capital Teaching Residency (CTR) is a nationally recognized, highly selective teacher training program that provides a pathway for aspiring teachers to develop into outstanding educators prepared to serve in high-need schools in Washington, D.C. CTRs make a commitment to teach for a minimum of three years in Washington, D.C. Residents spend the first year of this commitment—their residency year—training in a classroom with a highly effective mentor teacher. CTRs are initially placed at KIPP DC or E.L Haynes, two high-performing D.C. public charter schools. Throughout this time, the program supports CTRs as they develop into skilled educators through extensive coaching, consistent work with a mentor teacher, focused professional development coursework, and daily practice perfecting their skills in a real classroom. After completing their residency, CTR alumni remain in the classroom for at least two more years and continue to teach at E.L. Haynes, KIPP DC, or partner public charter schools across D.C. Click here to see Capital Teaching Residents in action! Our next deadline is Friday, January 24, 2014. We strongly encourage applicants to apply early to increase your placement opportunities and to allow more time to prepare for the transition to teaching! | | | | |  Join us for an upcoming webinar to learn more about CTR: - February 3 at 5:30pm EST -February 10 at 12pm EST
