Institute for Recruitment of Teachers (IRT)

The Institute for Recruitment of Teachers (IRT) aims to reduce over time the critical under-representation on school faculties of certain minority groups, as well as to address the attendant educational consequences of these disparities. Providing positive role models to youth, the Institute serves the related goals of supporting school and campus environments.

Each year, throughout the graduate school application process, the institute supports outstanding college students and graduates from diverse backgrounds who are committed to these ideals.

Please contact Monique Cueto-Potts, Coordinator for Recruitment and Admissions, at mcuetopotts@andover.edu if you would like to sign up for an information session over the web.  Online information sessions will begin in December 2009.
