Letter to the President

Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation

Levine notes that education has declined as a national priority. He appeals to the next U.S. president to champion quality education in America, addressing the achievement gap by focusing on teachers. He urges that the nation dignify the teaching profession, restoring its prestige through the equivalent of a Rhodes Scholarship program for teachers that would offer a significant award, enhanced clinical preparation, strong early-career mentoring, and competitive salaries.

Key Words: teachers • teaching • mentoring • fellowship • president • Rhodes
