At Golden Apple, our mission is to inspire, develop and support
teacher excellence in Illinois, especially in schools of need.

quality of the teacher in the classroom, Golden Apple provides
exceptional teacher preparation for teachers at all stages of their
careers.

Through our innovative programs offering method, resource and
mentorship, we work to transform teachers and teaching,
enriching both student and teacher lives.
