Education Pioneers Info Session at TC

If you are coming across my blog you might be interested in k-12 education. Last summer, I participated in a program called Education Pioneers - it is a fellowship for graduate students interested in k-12 urban education reform. During the fellowship, students are placed with "Partner organizations" such as the NYC DOE, charter schools, non-profits, etc. There is an information session in November at TC for anyone interested in participating next summer:

Interested in learning how to apply your passion and skills to transform urban public education? Need help navigating your post-graduate school career plans? Education Pioneers Fellows Program is a full-time, ten-week summer program where talented graduate students in business, education, law, policy, and other disciplines intern with effective schools, districts, and education organizations and train under existing education leaders. Over the course of the summer, Fellows work on challenging projects for Partners to gain practical experience and convene as a cohort for five training sessions, two retreats, and regular networking events. Through the Fellows Program, Education Pioneers provides high-achieving graduate students with a transformational summer experience in education reform that enables them to build a professional network, study key leverage areas in education reform from a multi-disciplinary perspective, and apply their skills to drive systemic change. Education Pioneers currently runs the Fellows program in the Boston, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco Bay Area, and Washington D.C.

An information session about the Education Pioneers Fellows Program will be held Tuesday Novermber 13^th from 4:00 – 5:00 PM at 543 Grace Dodge Hall.
