“San José is a community where educators are respected and valued for their important role; preparing our children to be successful for the future.  Our success as a community in the long run will depend on the effectiveness of teachers, school sand families working together to achieve this goal.” – Mayor Ron Gonzales

Mayor Gonzales is committed to making San José the most teacher friendly city in the nation.  Our goal is to recruit and retain well-trained and experienced teachers to improve student achievement throughout the City.

Nationwide teacher shortages combined with the growth in our student population has made it necessary for cities to recruit, train and hire excellent teachers for our students.

With a California State University, numerous private universities and eight community colleges within the San José region, we give potential teachers the access to the information and resources needed to earn a credential.

Additionally with assistance from San José’s Future Teacher Loan Program and our Teacher Homebuyer Program, financing an education and living in this community become as inviting as possible.  And don’t forget about the 300 days of sunshine a year!
