While South Carolina is rich in culture, history, and community, educational opportunity is not spread equally.
Teach For America South Carolina (TFASC) is working to recruit, develop, and retain high-quality teachers who transform student outcomes in the state’s most under-resourced schools. Our movement has grown from placing our first corps of 31 teachers in the Pee Dee region to supporting more than 800 teachers who positively impacted more than 70,000 students across the state since 2011. In addition to serving as role models, nearly two-thirds of our first- and second-year teachers achieved over a year’s worth of academic growth in their classrooms – closing learning gaps at accelerated rates.
Our network of teachers and alumni partner with schools and communities to realize the day when every child in South Carolina has the opportunity to learn, lead, thrive, and co-create a future filled with possibility.
