ICYMI: Our 2026 City of Fort Worth Academic Report last week reveals real progress: more campuses improved, more students are reading on grade level, and year-over-year growth is happening across many parts of the city. While more students are meeting grade level standards, 61% of Fort Worth kids are still not on track. Significant work remains to ensure all Fort Worth students have access to the support they need to succeed. Read the full report: https://buff.ly/ZYd1WNh

The research is clear that residency-trained teachers have some of the highest student achievement outcomes, improve faster, and are more likely to stay in the classroom longer than teachers from other preparation pathways, such as those prepared and certified through online-only programs, which have long been the majority of hires in Fort Worth-area schools.

Since 2020, FWEP has been supporting higher education institutions in scaling residency-trained teacher pipelines, and we are thrilled to support UTA in taking on this important work. Over a hundred teachers graduate from UTA's College of Education annually and go on to teach in classrooms across Fort Worth. We are pleased that they now have the opportunity to enter their first year in the classroom with a yearlong, paid residency already under their belt.
