Serve.

At its core, the Billiken Teacher Corps is a program designed to put high-quality teachers in urban schools.
TEACHING WITH THE
BILLIKEN TEACHER CORPS

​
All Billiken Teacher Corps fellows are placed in a Catholic school in either the Archdiocese of St. Louis or its neighbor, the Diocese of Belleville, IL. 

Teachers are placed into a variety of teaching positions in schools that have openings that suit the fellow's unique gifts and talents.

For example, teachers have been placed in a self-contained 2nd grade classroom, a middle school departmental math classroom, a high school Spanish classroom, and as a campus minister/Theology teacher in a high school. 

By working with Archdiocesan School Leadership and the principals of our partner schools, we try to find the right fit for each Billiken Teacher Corps fellow and school. 

All Billiken teachers are provided with an in-school mentor to show them the ins-and-outs of the school and help them get acquainted with the school's culture. 

Administrators at Billiken Teacher Corps partner schools are invested in the success of the Billiken teacher and therefore provide a necessary support to our first and second year teachers. ​​

BTC HAS SERVED IN OVER
UNDER-RESOURCED SCHOOLS
IN JUST A MATTER OF
YEARS
JUST IMAGINE WHAT WE CAN DO IN
YEARS OR MORE!

But... it's not all work. 

Billiken Teachers get to enjoy time with our students outside the classroom through field trips, sports teams, clubs and the many other adventures that are included in a well-rounded education. 

Our students are the best part of our day.

They are our teachers. 
Our comic relief. 
Our inspiration. 
Our encouragement. 

They are the reason we are here.

TEACH ME. by St. Ignatius of Loyola

Lord, teach me to be generous,
to serve you as you deserve,
to give and not to count the cost,
to fight and not to heed the wounds,
to toil and not to seek for rest,
to labor and not to look for any reward,
save that of knowing that I do your holy will.
