Cincinnati Public Schools and Miami University's TEACh Cincinnati program, designed to address the teacher shortage and increase diversity among educators, is expanding. A recent study highlights the $700 billion needed nationwide to offset academic setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the TEACh program providing academic, social, and financial support for students pursuing teaching careers, aiming to fill the teacher shortage and enhance diversity in education.
