Beyond100K
100kin10 is now Beyond100K! Our network exceeded our 100K STEM teacher goal in our first decade. We are proud to set a new goal to prepare and retain 150K STEM teachers over the next 10 years with a special emphasis on preparing and retaining Black, Latinx, and Native American teachers. Together we will create the conditions so that STEM learning environments are places where students and teachers feel they belong and can succeed in their classrooms, the field, and beyond. @Beyond100K believes radical collaboration across industry and sector is the key to ending the STEM teacher shortage with equity and belonging at the center.
