Additionally, LA's Promise works with several organizations to ensure its students and their families are receiving the very best services.
Los Angeles Unified School DistrictThe Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) is committed to excellence in education for all children. Toward that end the District is always looking for models of excellence and new ways to improve educating our children. IDesign and Public School Choice attempt to address this vision.
The mission of iDesign is to improve student achievement and graduation rates in collaboration with Network Partners by utilizing innovative practices to reform how school districts successfully serve and support their students.
Public School Choice was designed to tap into the potential wealth of innovative ideas and educational models that will help the LAUSD advance its commitment to provide a quality education for our students with Network Partners.
Teach for America Teach for America recruits a diverse group of leaders with a record of achievement who work to expand educational opportunity, starting by teaching for two years in a low-income community.
Transition to Teaching
The Transition to Teaching program supports the recruitment and retention of highly qualified mid-career professionals, including qualified paraprofessionals, and recent college graduates who have not majored in education to teach in high-need schools and districts through the development of new or enhanced alternative routes to certification.
Teachers' Curriculum Institute Teachers' Curriculum Institute develops K-12 social studies professional development workshops. Educators are introduced to the TCI Approach which includes using standards-based content, and multiple intelligence teaching strategies and assessments.
Education Pioneers With a mission to identify, train, connect, and inspire a new generation of leaders dedicated to transforming our educational system so that all students receive a quality education, Education Pioneers has been building a nationwide network of education change agents outside the classroom since 2003.
