Every scholar deserves a great educator.

The Propel Teacher Residency Program (PTRP) is a unique program developed to tackle a critical challenge — retaining quality educators. This full-time program equips educators with the skills and experience needed to make a meaningful impact in the lives of our scholars. Successful participants finish the program as Pennsylvania-certified teachers with three years of teaching experience and no college tuition debt.
