Teach For America recruits participate in a training session in Houston in 2006.
When Teach For America launched 36 years ago, one of its pilot sites was Scotlandville High School in Baton Rouge, La., where I happened to teach. So, I’ve observed TFA from its earliest days and been a sometime-friend and sometime-critic over the decades since. A year ago, I chatted with TFA’s longtime CEO Elisa Villanueva Beard as she was stepping down. Now, it seemed like a good time to speak with
