From the Head of the Teacher Education Unit
The Teacher Education Unit (TEU) is pleased to announce the creation of the Urban Teaching Center, an initiative of the My Brother’s Keeper Teacher Opportunity Corps II grant. Kathy Wood, associate dean of recruitment and teacher diversity in the School of Education, will oversee the center’s operations as specified by the TOC-II grant, in combination with the activities of the Urban Teacher Academy at McKinley High School and the Buffalo Urban Teacher Pipeline Residency Program funded with a legislative grant secured by Assemblywoman Crystal Peoples-Stokes. The center will connect with the Professional Development Schools Consortium of the TEU to coordinate programs that support our many urban teaching initiatives.
