Texas education group launches new teacher training partnership

As the education system works to help students overcome "learning loss" resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, Teach For America DFW has formed a partnership with KIPP Texas Public Schools to train more than 350 new teachers across the state this summer through an intensive program before the teachers enter the classroom.

More than 100 of these new teachers will be placed in North Texas-based schools.

Teach For America DFW Chief Program Officer Jessica Guthrie talked about the new partnership with KRLD's Chris Sommer.
