Why ResponsiveEd 180?

Charter schools hold a unique ability to employ non-traditional teachers who bring a diverse skill set into the classroom. It is our goal to harness these skills and create a pipeline of certified teachers to address current classroom needs and shortages. Using evidence-based strategies, we will prepare candidates to provide effective instructional delivery that supports positive student outcomes. This program will implement an extensive, blended training model designed for working-candidates where they complete comprehensive online coursework complemented by in-person coaching sessions and field-based and internship experiences within ResponsiveEd‘s Texas College Preparatory Academies (TCPA) classrooms. This unique structure will create a multi-tiered network of support, through collaboration between the program and TCPA’s academic team, allowing us to directly respond to the need for high-quality educators in Texas.
