Motivating the next generation of educators…

Educators Rising is an organization that helps make sure teachers have the experience and skills they need to be ready for the classroom. Starting with high school students, we provide passionate young people with hands-on teaching experience, sustain their interest in the profession, and help them cultivate the skills they need to be successful educators. The result is a pipeline of accomplished teachers who are positioned to make a lasting difference — not only in the lives of their students, but also in the field of teaching more broadly.

Educators Rising is an evolution of the Future Educators Association (formerly Future Teachers of America).

The Educators Rising NWSISD is a program sponsored by Northwest Suburban Integration School District.

Northwest Suburban Integration School District (NWSISD) envisions a global community learning and growing together, by providing students, parents and staff educational opportunities that are multicultural, diverse and promote racial integration.

  • NWSISD will work to create culturally inclusive learning environments by creating awareness, opportunities, training, and resources for them, and by providing inter-district opportunities to work together around them.
  • NWSISD will work to create inter-district interactions among students, staff and parents that improve intercultural competency and increase student achievement.
  • NWSISD and member districts will work to assist students, including students from racially diverse backgrounds, to be prepared for post-secondary success.

In order to achieve these goals, NWSISD has worked with its member districts to make several programs available to students living in the seven member school districts.
