Educators Rising is a national network that is transforming how America develops aspiring teachers. Starting with high school students, Educators Rising supports communities to provide passionate young people with hands-on teaching experience, sustain their interest in the profession, and help them cultivate the skills they need to be successful educators. The result is a pipeline of accomplished teachers who are positioned to make a lasting difference. Since its August 2015 launch, more than 30,000 students and teachers across the country have joined the network.

Educators Rising cultivates highly skilled educators by guiding young people on a path to becoming accomplished teachers, beginning in high school and extending through college and into the education profession.
What We Do:
Starting with middle and high school students, we provide passionate young people with authentic opportunities to experience teaching, sustain their interest in the education profession, and help them cultivate the skills they need to be successful educators.
What We Aim to Accomplish:
All students deserve highly skilled, well-prepared teachers. In order to build the teaching profession that students deserve, maximize recruitment, increase diversity, and raise the bar for quality preparation, the front end of a coherent teaching pipeline must begin in secondary education. This shared vision is rooted in high expectations for high school students to explore the craft of teaching and to embrace clinical experiences through teaching internships.
How We Do It:In high school, Educators Rising supports curricular programs where students explore the teaching profession and gain hands-on teaching experience. In college, Educators Rising supports campus-based student groups that promote the development of aspiring teachers. Educators Rising also helps students and teachers connect and deepen their learning through the EdRising Virtual Campus, a cutting-edge online community that offers rigorous resources to support the development of great teachers.
