What we do
We’re here to break down the barriers and give you the support to become the teacher our students need.
Helping Teachers Like You
Rhode Island has the fastest-growing population of Multilingual Learners (MLLs) in the country, and an incredible linguistic and cultural richness. Research shows that bilingual education delivers the strongest outcomes for all students, yet we’re facing a critical teacher shortage. That’s where YOU come in. We know Rhode Island is full of passionate future educators who just need the right support to get into the classroom. PRIME—Preparing Rhode Island’s Multilingual Educators—is here to break down those barriers and help you become the teacher our students need!
Shaping Policy
Developing Professionals
CMRI helps educators like you develop professionally by providing opportunities to workshop your resume, apply for jobs in Rhode Island schools, learn how to transition to teaching in the U.S., and access to our Multilingual Educator Affinity Group where you can network, grow, and learn from other multilingual educators.
