| Abstract | Many of the positive changes seen in education reform over the past few decades--from replication of high-quality charter schools to expansion of teacher residency programs--have been made possible, at least in part, through partnerships with AmeriCorps and other national service programs. Under the Trump administration's current proposal to cut AmeriCorps funding, schools and students would suffer. It would be extremely costly to replace the volunteers who provide much-needed support during and after the school day. AmeriCorps programs such as Teach for America, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and Reading Corps would have to be vastly scaled back or cut entirely as it would become too expensive to maintain their current levels of operation. Many programs, such as the Boston Teacher Residency, provide a much-needed pathway for schools to diversify their teacher workforce. Cutting support for these teacher residencies and fellowships, which focus on recruiting excellent and diverse candidates, will contribute to the widening teacher diversity gap. (ERIC). |
