The Project Inspire teacher residency, located in Chattanooga, TN, recruits talented undergraduate students and career changers who want rigorous, rewarding training to become successful teachers in high-need schools.   Over the course of the 14 month program, teacher residents complete a master’s degree in education, a year-long classroom apprenticeship, and receive a teaching license.  

Financial supports are available during the residency year and including a living stipend and a master’s degree scholarship.

This program is for individuals who:

• Want to become licensed to teach secondary math or science (6th-12th grade) or elementary education (literacy emphasis)
• Are committed to educational equity in Chattanooga, TN and want to be part of a vibrant, entrepreneurial community  
• Want a rigorous but thoughtfully designed training program that also emphasizes teacher leadership in the early years of teaching
