Content provided by Spouse to Teachers

Spouses to Teachers is a pilot project designed to assist spouses of active duty military in their pursuit of K-12 teaching positions in both public and private schools in the U.S. The pilot states will provide information, counseling and guidance to eligible spouses regarding teacher certification requirements, routes to certification, employment potential, financial assistance, and assistance with employment searches.
