The ability to teach in a career you love while also having the time and finances for continued education can often seem difficult to find - but the growth and rewards are well worth it.
We want to make quality education and care more attainable by facilitating a child care system in New Hampshire of skilled teachers with access to the degrees, training and first-hand teaching experiences they need to build on their career and salary with less financial barriers.
This change begins with providing scholarships for continued education through the TEACH Early Childhood® Scholarship Program which increases access to debt-free college education to the early childhood workforce for increased knowledge, better compensation and retention. The TEACH Early Childhood® Vision is that: Every child in an early childhood setting has a teacher who is well educated and well compensated.
Every early childhood teacher has access to affordable college education and workforce supports as well as earns a livable wage. Every TEACH NH Scholarship allows teachers to continue working while also continuing their education. In fact, these scholarships fully cover 85-95% of tuition for all qualifying programs as well as provide funding towards books, release time and a semester stipend .
The impact of TEACH goes beyond the individual recipient by addressing the obstacle of staff retention facing many New Hampshire early childhood education programs. By partnering with these programs as sponsors and their employees as scholarship recipients, we build the bridge of access to higher education which increases the quality of care given to children in their care.
