I need to become a better teacher for my students by becoming Board Certified.

My Project
With this project, I am hoping to become a National Board Certified Teacher. I am requesting assistance for registration, and one of the four components that are required for the National Board program. I want to be the best teacher that I can be for my students, and that requires me to always push forward and learn. National Board Certification is a rigorous process by which teachers become more effective in the classroom. National Board Certification will give me opportunities to evaluate the professional I am, and the professional I want to be.
There is a decade of research to support the impact that Board-certified teachers have on students.
Students of Board-certified teachers learn more than their peers without Board-certified teachers. Studies have also found that the positive impact of having a Board-certified teacher is even greater for BiPOC and low-income students.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
