Many families do not have the means for items and services such as eye exams and eyeglasses, hearing aids, shoes that fit, school supplies, and much more.

The North Carolina Teacher Cadet Program is an in-state teacher recruitment and leadership program designed to create a pipeline of students to be the next generation of teachers and one that is reflective of the diverse demographic makeup of the students served. Teacher Cadet is a solution for the teacher shortage and the lack of educators who reflect student demographics, both which lead to increased student achievement, graduation, and career preparedness.
The North Carolina Teacher Cadet Program began in 1997 and has proven to be successful in increasing student interest in the teaching profession with the long-term focus on “growing our own” teachers.
