We are building a dynamic community of educators who will receive deep investments in mentorship, coaching, and graduate school. Through this investment, this team of teachers will go forth and positively impact student achievement in high-poverty schools, ultimately creating a more just and humane society in New Orleans and beyond.

Maybe you are finishing an undergraduate degree.  Maybe you are considering a career change. Or, perhaps you work in a role in education but dream about having your own classroom.  The Norman C. Francis Teacher Residency can help you develop into an educator who makes a life-long impact on students.
