The Teach Plus Teaching Policy Fellowship is a selective leadership opportunity for solutions-oriented, early-career teachers interested in having a voice in decisions that affect their profession. Fellows are current classroom teachers who meet monthly to connect with influential education leaders; analyze education reform initiatives; and study innovative practices. They work with like-minded peers to push for change in the teaching profession that would better retain effective, experienced teachers on behalf of urban students and schools. The Fellowship spans from February 2013 to May 2014. Fellows receive a $2,400 stipend.
