September meetup

Welcome Back, Educators & Leaders!

Join us on September 19th from 5:30-7pm in Providence at ISCO for an education-based community gathering to kick off the school year and celebrate the incredible work of educators and leaders committed to educational equity, especially teacher diversity. This month, we are lucky to have all guest speakers representing the Central Falls school district in Rhode Island!

Our evening focuses on lifting the voices of educators, teacher assistants, and educational leaders from underserved and underrepresented backgrounds. This space will offer opportunities to: 

  • Connect & Network: Engage with a passionate community of educators who are dedicated to making a difference in education.

  • Build Relationships: Foster connections with peers who share your commitment to educational equity.

  • Learn about our Educator Pathway Collective Online Community: We're thrilled to introduce our new digital platform, the Educator Pathway Collective! This online digital portal is designed to be a central hub for all your teacher certification needs. The platform offers community spaces, pathway coaching, events, exam preparation, certification support, and much more.

Join us to connect with like-minded individuals, gain valuable insights from our speakers, and celebrate the start of a new school year with us.

We look forward to seeing you there!

*As always, delicious food and drinks will be provided.
