The structural obstacles to teacher preparation and licensure are many and disproportionately prevent low-income people of color from becoming teachers. As part of our commitment to serving low-income students and families of color, KIPP Chicago seeks to draw more talented, committed people into the teaching profession through our Teaching Residents role. This is a role for those at the very initial stages of their careers in education. The role is ideal for those who have studied in another field and are looking to make a transition into teaching, those who are in an alternative licensure program like Teach for America, or those who have recently graduated from a teacher preparation program and are looking for their first classroom position.
