Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE)

The Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) is a two-year service program offering college graduates the opportunity to serve as full-time teachers in under-resourced Catholic schools across the United States. Because we believe that good teachers need excellent training, ACE prepares its teachers in an innovative, fully- funded Master of Education program at the University of Notre Dame. ACE teachers spend two summers (June-July) studying in the Master of Education program at Notre Dame and two school years (August-May) teaching in under-resourced Catholic schools. While teaching, participants live in small communities of 4-7 members and together share the many challenges and rewards of beginning teaching.
