TEACH Campaign Seeking Minority, Male Teachers
Columbia, SC (WLTX) -- The U.S. Department of Education says it wants to recruit more diverse and qualified educators and created a new initiative to help the process.
It's called the TEACH Campaign, and has a goal of encouraging more minorities--especially males--to go after careers in the classroom.

The best job anyone could have
My name is Craig Simpson. I am an Infant/Toddler Team leader at the Yawkey Konbit Kreyole Center for Early Education and Care in Dorchester, MA, USA. I am 62 years old. I have been working as an Early Childhood Teacher for over 30 years. My mother had been a Preschool teacher for 30 years. I grew up in a racially integrated preschool at the end of the 1940s in New Jersey. I didn't think I would be a teacher, even a day care teacher. I thought I would be an archeologist.
