Second Deadline: November 2

In America today, 9-year-olds growing up in low-income communities are already three grade levels behind their peers in higher-income communities. Educational inequity is our nation's greatest injustice - and you have the power to change this.

Teach For America is the corps of recent college graduates who teach for two years in urban and rural public schools and become lifelong leaders to expand educational opportunity for all. We seek the most outstanding graduating college seniors - from all majors such as business, medicine, politics, law, education, public policy, and the sciences - who have the leadership skills to change the prospects of students growing up today and, ultimately, to effect fundamental changes in our society that will make it a place of opportunity for all.

We urge you to apply to the 2008 Teach For America corps. The next application deadline is Friday, November 2, 2007 (11:59 p.m. PDT, 2:59 a.m. EDT).

Seeking all academic majors. Full salary and benefits. No previous education experience or coursework necessary.
