If your students have ever thought about making a difference and are passionate about urban youth, the Atlanta Urban Teacher Residency (AUTR) may be the program for them. AUTR will prepare individuials to teach in Atlanta Public Schools to impact the lives of children in the city of Atlanta. As a resident in the AUTR cohort selected individuals will participate in an intense program focused on recruiting, preparing and retaining secondary mathematics and science teachers in Atlanta Public Schools.
Our mission is to create a pipeline of highly effective secondary teachers in the Atlanta Public School's areas of greatest need - math, science, reading, and special education - through an Urban Teacher Residency.
As APS seeks to ensure that there is an effective teacher in every classroom, AUTR will prepare an elite cadre of teachers to go into high needs schools. AUTR has identified master teachers to train and support residents as they earn their master's degree and develop their skills as highly effective classroom teachers.
The Atlanta Urban Teacher Residency focuses on innovative mathematics and science teaching and learning in middle and high schools. The Urban Teacher Residency (UTR) model is similar to the medical residency program model. AUTR is a member of a network of UTR programs across the country. Our program is designed to recruit teachers for high need positions and give them a strong year of "on the job" training and support followed by intense post-residency support.
Please have interested students learn more about the program at www.atlantapublicschools.us/autr<http://www.atlantapublicschools.us/autr> to learn more and to apply. The deadline for application is February 1, 2013. If you or your students have questions please do not hesitate to contact me at kamerson@atlantapublicschools.us<mailto:kamerson@atlantapublicschools.us> or 404-802-2383.
