Imagine walking into a school where a vital teaching role has been vacant for up to four years. This was my reality in education over 15 years ago -- and it shook me to my core. I couldn't believe that there were schools and students that simply went without math teachers, science, and language teachers -- and what's worse was this was the "norm" in these districts. In underserved communities across the country, this is the reality. The impact of these teacher shortages is not just a temporary inconvenience—it’s a crisis that disproportionately affects Latino, African-American, and low-income students. These students often bear the brunt of this gap, leading to declining test scores and a growing sense of frustration among parents, families, and students. But it doesn't have to be this way. I’m committed to changing this narrative. In fact it was all those years ago that I vowed to be part of the solution and make sure that students everywhere receive the teachers they deserve no matter where they live and go to school. We at Proximity Learning understand the critical role education plays in shaping futures, and we’re dedicated to providing every student with the qualified teachers they deserve. Our mission is simple: bridge the gap, ensure equity, and make certain that no student is left behind due to a lack of educational resources. Education should be a right for all, not a privilege. 🌍📚 So proud of the work we do and the mission we took on. #EdTech #LiveVirtualTeachers #SynchronousIsBetter #VirtualLearning #InnovationInEducation #UnderServed #DiversityEquityInclusion #FutureOfLearning https://lnkd.in/guC8BiK5
