Troops to Teachers is a highly successful federal program created in 1994 and designed to place veterans into America’s classrooms as teachers. Troops to Teachers has certified and placed nearly 10,000 veterans as educators in classroom across the Nation, over the past several years.

The Troops to Teachers Hire-in-Advance program is an innovative and creative model to recruit former military members and their spouses to become public school teachers in high-need areas. School districts throughout the United States have realized the importance of hiring quality teachers for our nation’s classrooms and have found a wealth of outstanding applicants through the Troops to Teachers program.

Aurora Public Schools is excited to begin its partnership with the Troops to Teachers organization and anticipate a long and prosperous working relationship. The Hire-in-Advance program is truly a win-win opportunity for both Troops to Teachers participants and Aurora Public Schools.
