The Center for Minority Teacher Development and Training
The Commitment
Mission
To bring out the very best in each of our students through sound academic programs, inspired teaching, and an environment that accommodates and celebrates individual career aspirations.
Vision
To provide Long Island's diverse student populations with more diverse teachers and better instruction from all teachers.
"We need more resources
to educate African-American and Latino teachers so they can educate
the next generation."
- Steve

"The gulf between the number of
minority students and the number of minority teachers is wider locally
[on Long Island]."

represents our national diversity. A center such as this works toward
the healing of America."
