In this episode of The Voice of the District, Bridgeport Public Schools highlights its partnership with Sacred Heart University through the Teacher Residency Program.

This conversation focuses on how the district is building a stronger, more sustainable pipeline of educators by connecting preparation directly to the realities of the classroom. Through this collaboration, future teachers gain hands-on experience, mentorship, and the support needed to succeed in Bridgeport schools from day one.

Joining the discussion are Dr. René Roselle, who leads teacher preparation and the residency program at Sacred Heart University, and Michael Brosnan, Teacher Coordinator and District TEAM Facilitator for Bridgeport Public Schools. Together, they share insight on the vision behind the partnership, its impact on residents and school communities, and what’s ahead.

This episode underscores a simple truth: investing in educators is an investment in students.
