The Grow-Your-Own Approach to Teacher Preparation: A Conversation with Amaya Garcia
Heller, Rafael
Phi Delta Kappan, v103 n3 p28-33 Nov 2021
Amaya Garcia of New America talks with Kappan about grow-your-own programs, in which school districts partner with teacher preparation programs to recruit and prepare community members, often current students or school staff, to teach in local schools. A recent 50-state scan shows that there is a great deal of variety in how these programs are designed and implemented, and data on the effectiveness of these programs to address teacher shortages is still emerging. Garcia discusses some specific programs that appear especially promising.
