Teach PA, a division of Teach Coalition, is the leading voice of yeshivas and Jewish day schools in Pennsylvania and has played a role in every nonpublic school funding development since 2012. Currently, 55% of Jewish day school students receive scholarships through the state’s tax credit program. Teach PA advances and strengthens Jewish day schools and communities by lobbying in Harrisburg and in local communities, facilitating grassroots activism in support of Jewish schools across regions and mobilizing nonpartisan voter outreach.

Join us as we fight for quality, affordable education for all students.
