Program areas at El Paso Community Foundation
The Foundation serves the general charitable, educational, and scientific needs of El Paso and surrounding areas.
The Teacher Pipeline Fund supports the work of an El Paso Teacher Preparation community of Practice created to ensure an equitable education system that meets the needs of all students in the region. The goal is for 100% of new teachers hired by districts in the El Paso region must be trained in sustainable, high-quality programs, and those teachers must be effective and retained. The initiative includes four strategic areas: recruitment into the profession, high quality teacher preparation programs, a year-long paid residency, and early career teacher mentorship.
