Teach-A-Thon
Teacher Registration Form
Attention Miami-Dade County Public School Teachers!
Join us for this unique and exciting campaign, where bankers, lawyers, accountants, and professionals
from all walks of life learn what it takes to be a teacher. Each of these Teacher Champions will then
"step into the shoes" of a Miami-Dade County Public Schools' teacher to raise money and support for
teachers.
By participating in The Education Fund's Teach-A-Thon, you can:
- Allow a Teacher Champion team to teach in your classroom while you observe.
- Educate the Teacher Champions on what it takes to be a successful teacher, even for a single day.
- Increase the public's knowledge, understanding and appreciation of your profession.
- Earn money for your classroom.
What is required?
- Communicate with The Education Fund staff by phone, 305-558-4544 ext. 108, and email, teachathon@educationfund.org.
- Connect and communicate (personal meetings, e-mailing and phone calls) with your assigned teacher champion (business participant) and guide them through their lesson plan.
- Attend up to two events along with the teacher champions including:
- - Kick-off party on Wednesday, Sept. 28 at the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables (after school)
- - Victory Party in late January 2017 (after school).
- Host a teacher champion in your classroom for at least one (1) teaching experience class between October 17th thru November 19th
(note: MDCPS teacher remains in classroom with teacher champions).
If you are interested, please complete the easy online form and return it before Friday, September 16, 2016.
Please apply on-time so that you can be matched with a business partner by the beginning of the new school year
