Noble Schools: Relay Residency Program

Relay Residency Program

The Teaching Residency is a two-year program where educators have the opportunity to participate in a year-long apprenticeship under the guidance and direction of a mentor teacher before transitioning into a lead teaching position in the second year of the program.

Our residents join a selective cohort of diverse and talented future teachers committed to educational justice.

“I am really glad for the Relay Teaching Residency and the impact it has had on me as a teacher. I have found so many connections between what I have been learning in our sessions and what I do as a learning specialist.”

My Role

Residents at Noble typically fill a teacher’s assistant (TA) or paraprofessional role, and their responsibilities include providing one-on-one support to students, providing direct instruction to small groups of students, co-teaching, and filling in as substitute teachers.

Over the course of the program, you will build your teaching skills with guidance from your Relay professors and a designated mentor at your school. Throughout your first year as a teaching resident, you’ll gradually gain responsibility by leading small groups of students through lessons until you are ready to instruct a whole class.
