A $5 gift to help a student with their certification tests or background checks frees up another $5 for their current or future expenses, such as supplies for their future classroom.

A $15 gift means $15 less one of our students has to find for their background check or certification tests.

$30 will cover a student's registration fee for their teacher certification tests.

$59 will cover the fee for the criminal background check which all teachers must pass before being allowed in a classroom.

$120 is an average amount for a subject area test or professional teaching exam. Our students will have to take at least 1 subject area test (usually 2 or 3) and the professional teaching exam.

$359 is the total cost one student teacher would have to pay including their registration fee for certification tests, their subject area test, the professional teaching exam, and the criminal background check.
