African American Teaching Fellows: About AATF

African American teachers in our schools provide role models for our students, and opportunities for all students to learn about ethnic, racial, and cultural identity. We work actively to increase our pool of teachers from underrepresented groups and look forward to continuing to work with you to further this common goal.
