Dear History majors, Please see below for information on the NYC Teaching Fellows initiative. NYC Teaching Fellows recruits and trains people without a formal background in education to become teachers in high-needs schools throughout New York City. The program allows candidates to complete a subsidized master's degree in the process, and fellows earn a full teacher's salary and benefits. Please direct all questions to Anna Kelly, Director of Talent Sourcing ( fellows@schools.nyc.gov).

Fellows complete a master’s degree while teaching full-time in a public school, allowing for a direct transition into the classroom. The master’s degree is subsidized by the NYC Department of Education, and Fellows earn a full teacher’s salary and benefits. Since 2000, the Fellows program has provided New York City students with thousands of talented new teachers. Today, Fellows work in 80 percent of New York City’s 1,800 public schools and represent 12 percent of the city’s active teaching force. *Our early application deadline is October 22, 2015.* Apply today and take the first step towards joining an elite network of teachers committed to raising student achievement and proving what’s possible in our public schools. *Here's How to Get Started**:* 1.
