What an exciting event! Representatives from seven Eastern Shore school systems, higher education partners, and the Maryland State Department of Education gathered last week for the kickoff of the ESMEC Grow Your Own Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program (RTAP).
The event brought together registered teacher apprentices, journeyworkers, principals, college partners, and district leaders from Caroline, Cecil, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s, Somerset, and Talbot counties to prepare for the launch of this innovative educator workforce initiative.
Our own Deputy Superintendent Dr. Rob Willoughby opened the event with an overview of the program.
“We are investing in our own employees who come to work every day, live in and contribute to our communities, and care deeply about our kids,” Dr. Willoughby stated. “This program helps break down the barriers that keep some of our folks from realizing their dream of becoming a licensed teacher – and that’s something to be excited about.”
Through the program, paraprofessionals can earn their degrees, strengthen their teaching skills, and become licensed Maryland teachers while continuing to serve students in their local schools.

Many thanks to event sponsors Maryland State Department of Education, K12 Systems Change Solutions, Chesapeake Culinary Center, National Center for Grow Your Own, Preston Automotive Group, and Educational Systems Federal Credit Union.

Our sincere thanks to the Maryland State Police troopers who visited our middle school students last week to share information about careers with MSP.
Troopers spoke with students about a variety of career pathways within law enforcement, including educational requirements, academy training, salary and benefits, and exploratory programs designed to help students learn more about the profession. We appreciate their time and commitment to helping students explore future career opportunities.
