Aim High Aspiring Teachers Program

The Need for More Teachers
Making an Impact
Hands-on Training & Support
25% of staff time is allocated to professional development & classroom training to improve success potential in their career.
Diversifying the Teacher Pipeline
We hire and develop educators from underserved communities. 80% of our staff are people of color, compared to 40% of California public school educators.
Innovative Classroom Methods
We utilize evidence-based approaches, such as culturally responsive and trauma-informed teaching, social-emotional learning, project-based learning and restorative justice practices. Teachers then take these resources back into their academic-year classrooms, extending Aim High’s impact far beyond summer.
