Extending the Reach of Excellent Teachers

Public Impact, a Carnegie Corporation grantee, has published an infographic to demonstrate how the United States can reach all students with excellent teachers, offering them more pay while still remaining within budget. The infographic depicts how this can be achieved while also creating collaborative teams on which all educators can contribute to excellence, engage in meaningful learning, and pursue career advancement. The grantee defines an Opportunity Culture, as depicted in the infographic, as when all teachers have career opportunities dependent upon their excellence, leadership, and student impact. And, when advancement allows more pay and greater reach. Most important, in an Opportunity Culture, students have a greater chance to succeed: an Opportunity Culture for all.
