We are still recovering from all the excitement from the 35th Anniversary Summit in Las Vegas!

Over 150 Baltimore alumni, corps members, board members, and partners gathered together. From attending a panel featuring Maryland’s own State Superintendent, Dr. Carey Wright, to enjoying music by artists like Ms. Lauryn Hill and Common, to regrounding in our mission, alumni said the weekend was unforgettable.

We also had several Baltimore-based alumni leading and presenting at conference sessions, including Sarah McLean (Baltimore ‘02), who gave a TFA Talk called Stronger Together: The Power of Partnership; and Shamoyia Gardiner (Jacksonville ‘14) and Ashia Caraway (Kansas City ‘18), who spoke on a LEE panel called Black Women Governing with Hope.

Another highlight was the Alumni Honors Ceremony, where all three honors had a connection to Baltimore:

- Daniel J. Jones (Baltimore '98) won the James W. Foley Moral Courage Honor.
- Fareeha Waheed (Baltimore '14) won the Layla Avila Educator Leadership and Systems Impact Honor.
- The third honor was named after Omari Todd (Baltimore ‘00), former Executive Director of Teach For America Baltimore.

If you missed the Summit, don’t worry! Be on the lookout for more opportunities to connect with our alumni community and reflect on your personal why.

Thirty-five years ago, Teach For America made a bet on the power of a rising generation to lead alongside students and communities. That bet has now stretched across generations.

As we come together for TFA’s 35th Anniversary Summit, Aneesh Sohoni reflects on what has endured, what has changed, and why the next generation’s leadership matters so much to the work ahead.

Behind every welcoming classroom is a teacher who has spent hours preparing for the year ahead.

Thanks to APG Federal Credit Union, 10+ Teach For America Baltimore classrooms received the supplies they needed to start the school year strong. Their donation of nearly $600 in classroom materials is helping teachers focus on what matters most: creating meaningful learning experiences for students.

When communities invest in teachers, students benefit. Thank you, APG Federal Credit Union, for supporting Baltimore's educators and helping make learning possible from day one.
