If you believe in our vision that every child deserves an excellent education, then support our growing movement.

Do you think public education is a wise investment?

Many public schools are facing a teacher shortage crisis in South Carolina. But together, we can help solve it.
Your financial support helps us to recruit, prepare, and retain more high-quality teachers where the greatest needs are. When you donate to TFASC, 90 cents of every dollar are invested in expanding our teacher training programs to reach more students and communities. Excellent teachers are the key to improving education and preparing all students for success in a rapidly changing world.

“Without TFASC and its excellent teachers, the alarming gap in teacher supply would be even wider. Educating students without teachers is impossible. Educating students well without first-rate teachers is even more impossible.”

Accelerated Academic Growth

1+
year

Our teachers were placed at schools where only 30% of students met or exceeded grade-level standards.

By the end of the 2021-2022 school year, 62% of our teachers achieved over a year’s worth of academic growth in their classrooms — closing learning gaps at accelerated rates.
