Training teachers as advocates so teachers and students thrive in Colorado.
Teach Plus trains teachers in: understanding education policy as a lever for student success, community organizing, writing op-eds and speaking to the media, providing public testimony, and more. Teach Plus works to create and connect teachers to opportunities to lead in real ways at the policy level.
“As a fellow with Teach Plus Colorado, I am empowered with the necessary tools to influence education issues that are most impactful on students– and particularly students of color– by crafting and recommending policies that create the infrastructure for sustainable change and equitable education outcomes for all students.” – Veronica Bell
