Noble-Relay Teaching Residency - A Pathway to a Noble
Profession
The Noble-Relay
Teaching Residency, run in partnership between the Noble Network of Charter
Schools and Relay Graduate School of Education*, offers Noble alumni a unique
opportunity to become Noble teachers through a prestigious fellowship and
graduate school program. As a Resident, you’ll be hired to work full-time at
Noble and you’ll spend four days a week supporting a veteran Noble teacher and
gradually taking on teaching responsibilities as your skills develop.
Throughout the program, you’ll spend one day a week receiving training and
learning how to teach through Relay’s unique Master’s degree program.
Successful graduates of the Noble-Relay Teaching Residency
will transition into full-time teaching positions at Noble after their year of
residency and they’ll be one year away from receiving a Master’s degree and
teaching certification from Relay.
