About us

The Arizona Teacher Residency is a first-of-its-kind graduate program in Arizona, modeled after medical residencies, to help recruit, prepare, support, and retain K-12 teachers. In its first year, the program will prepare teachers for grades K-8 but will expand to high school in future years. The two-year program aims to prepare aspiring teachers with a rigorous graduate education, a yearlong classroom apprenticeship, and ongoing professional learning through the Arizona K12 Center. Residents will receive a living stipend in the first year, are eligible for a tuition free master’s degree, and a job at a partnering school district. In exchange, residents commit to serving in the partner district in which they were trained for a minimum of 3 years after the residency year.
