Let's Bring Grow Your Own Educator Programs throughout Pennsylvania: FULL PRESS CONFERENCE

As schools across Pennsylvania face increasing teacher vacancies, state Senator Carolyn Comitta and state Representative Mike Schlossberg brought together educators and education advocates to support funding “Grow Your Own Educator” teacher recruitment programs in Pennsylvania.
The Grow Your Own Educators Program prioritizes assisting individuals already heavily involved within a school district and community by providing financial assistance, support, and resources toward obtaining a state teaching certification.
Legislation has been introduced by Comitta as Senate Bill 826 and by Schlossberg as House Bill 141.
