Opportunity Culture is a program that solves the teacher shortage and improves student performance through the collaboration of advanced educators partnering with teacher residents. They can grow as educators, get paid for their residency, and improve the quality of the curriculum they are teaching.
One principal at an Ector County elementary school says their students’ success is always the number one priority.
“Opportunity culture is a redesign of the traditional school setting. Where you have these excellent, talented, successful teachers that coach, support, and plan with their peer teachers, our goal is that kids get that high-quality instruction every day”
Teachers report that the sense of community and collaboration has helped them grow as educators.
