TEACH FOR CHRIST
Teach for Christ was inspired by the late Kathleen “Kay” Mellon, a great Catholic school principal and teacher who devoted her life to bringing Christ to every child through Education. Kay continued her service well into her 80s while she was still teaching young Latino children to read and write English in her home. Kay passionately believed in the power of one-on-one and small group instruction, our own specialty.
Kay’s life and work inspires ours. We ask young men and women to bring Christ to every child by serving Christ themselves. Today Teach for Christ Educators serve in a growing number of schools in the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. This is just the beginning of what we aim to do in making Kay’s motto a reality.
