Teach for America Detroit has been instrumental in developing teachers and leaders in a way that is not only impactful but sustainable. Their innovative approaches to professional development and growth have enhanced our talent pool within Saginaw Public Schools and provided a catalyst for attracting individuals to our school district.

The purpose of TeachMichigan is to lift up the teaching profession through the people who are in it. Our goal is to make Michigan the best place to be a teacher in the country.

We know that our students can achieve great things, that our job is to help uncover their human potential so that each and every one of our students can live out their hopes and dreams. And we know that education is the lever for them to transcend. We want to provide the best education that we can, and our teachers are vital to that mission.

Every student in Michigan should have the right to a dynamic, high-quality education. That will happen if we as leaders do what is necessary to attract, retain, and train high-quality educators. Everything about TeachMichigan is high quality.”
