“When thoughtfully designed and carefully managed, the apprenticeship model offers school districts a valuable chance to invest in robust training and support systems. Through quality partnerships and affordable programs that remove barriers, we can close equity gaps and provide all aspiring educators with the opportunity to succeed. This approach not only enhances educational quality but also strengthens the talent pipeline, addressing the teacher shortage crisis with impactful and sustainable results.”
