TAKE ACTION

Imagine a world in which teacher salaries are doubled—yes, doubled. Imagine the prestige and applicants that would bring to the profession. Highly motivated college graduates would more frequently ponder: “Internet start-up, research medicine, or my hometown high school?” Schools with chronic teacher shortages would attract many more qualified applicants, and dedicated teachers would not be compelled to leave the classroom to support their families.

You can help make this world a reality.
