I have written about teachers being recruited from out of the country. There is the teach for American Program and other teacher recruitement programs that some deem questionable as well. However, I have recently been made aware of a Teacher recruitment program that few can argue with. It is called Troops to Teachers.
This program raises the quailty of teacher recruits, it adds more men to the classroom, and it also ads more minority teachers to classrooms all in one shot. ...And they are making quick progress.
The recruits are producing results. A recent study found that Florida students taught by Troops to Teachers participants made greater gains in reading than peers taught by teachers with similar classroom experience. In math, students in Troops to Teachers classrooms outperformed those in other classes -- even when the other teacher had more years under his belt.
