Our pilot is funded entirely by philanthropy, but we believe this program’s success will change how our public systems work. Recently TRiO joined @buffywicks to increase funding allocated to teacher residencies in the most recent state budget.
This message is simple: this model works. TRiO has tripled the number of BIPOC teacher residents in OUSD and now supports 30 educators who reach & teach 4000 Oakland students. The 9yr pilot is projected to serve 112 + teachers, impacting 50,000+ students. https://t.co/j02OMN2tU4
Proud to join with community partners to expand our innovative affordable housing pilot to recruit and retain BIPOC teachers in Oakland by supporting them with a guaranteed income and reduced-priced housing. We want to keep our teachers, like Mr. O, rooted in Oakland.
Shout out to @Athletics for welcoming us & giving Mason Williams, 5th-grader at MLK elementary the opportunity to throw out the 1st pitch. Our #OaklandUndividedFOREVER video & section were highlighted on the Jumbotron & we had a visit from Stomper during the 7th inning stretch.
Thanks to all who joined us at the @Athletics game for #OaklandUndivided night, celebrating the impact of distributing 29K computers, 10K hotspots, & our commitment to ensure all public school students in need continue to have home access to computers, internet & tech support.
