Center for Urban Teaching

Center for Urban Teaching Identification, preparation, and support of urban teachers, leaders and schools is what we do. This knowledge defines our purpose.

We believe fervently in the power of great teachers to forever transform the lives of young people in the urban classroom. The very best principals and school leaders in the movement to reform schools are constantly searching for excellent teachers. They understand the profound impact that even one great teacher can have on the lives of hundreds and even thousands of young people. As a result, we

move with even greater urgency armed with the knowledge that our work is important and that God has placed us here at this time to make a difference in the lives of these children.

A strong summer school experience for students starts long before they walk through the classroom door.

It begins with CfUT recruiting and preparing joy-filled teachers and leaders who believe every child should be known, loved and challenged to achieve their full potential.

After several days of training in Milwaukee, CfUT’s 20 Summer School teams stepped away from the city for a two-day retreat to connect, reflect and prepare for the work ahead.

These moments help lay the foundation for a transformational summer school experience filled with joy, excellence and unconditional love.
