Teach for America has notified its partner districts that it is on track to train a smaller corps of teachers this year, possibly falling short of demand for its teachers by 25 percent. TFA believes that recruitment is down because the economy is stronger (and prospective TFA teachers have more options) and because of “an increasingly polarized public conversation around education.”
