About Teach Kentucky

Teach Kentucky seeks to attract highly motivated future educators to teach in our public schools, enhancing the quality of education for our students and enriching our civic life by retaining these bright minds in the region.

Successful applicants will teach full-time in priority public middle and high schools in the Greater Louisville area—serving as the teacher of record in a classroom and earning a full-time salary—while pursuing an Alternative Route Teacher Certification via a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree program.

Teach Kentucky focuses on providing a supportive environment and sense of community where teachers are encouraged to use creativity and innovative teaching techniques to enrich the lives of students, the face of education, and their own lives.

“Teach Kentucky emphasizes individual teacher support, which is critical during the first year of teaching, as well as a sense of camaraderie with fellow teachers, and connection to the Louisville community.”

– Paul Barnwell, 12th-year teacher

Successful applicants to the Teach Kentucky program will…

…live well in Louisville…

Voted “Most Compassionate City” and “Most Livable City,” the Louisville area is more than home to the Kentucky Derby, baseball bats and bourbon. The city features its own opera, orchestra, ballet company, and the world-renowned Actor’s Theatre. It’s also a hub for indie music, regional and college sports, and has a robust foodie culture, including superb craft breweries and craft distilleries as well as CoffeeFest’s “America’s Best Coffeehouse” (Quills Coffee) and “America’s Best Espresso” (Sunergos Coffee).

Nestled in the Ohio River Valley, blessed with four seasons, a string of Olmsted parks and splendid architecture, including the nation’s largest Victorian preservation district, Louisville is also a beautiful place to call home.

Here are a few of the recognitions Louisville has received just this year:

  • Practice teaching sessions and classroom observations
  • Enrollment in an alternative route to Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) degree, with full professional teaching licensure upon completion

  • Access to AmeriCorps Segal Education Award, totaling $12,390 over two years
