Beyond100K (formerly 100Kin10) serves as a powerful national hub and "field catalyst," mobilizing a diverse network of hundreds of leading organizations to tackle the systemic challenges underlying the national STEM teacher shortage. Through intentional collaboration, focused convenings, and research & resource-sharing, we strategically remove barriers to collaboration, helping key players across the education ecosystem align efforts and scale innovations to achieve lasting, field-wide transformation.

Our Track Record

Our unique, networked-impact approach has driven measurable, large-scale progress across the country:

A Decade of Impact: We successfully met our inaugural 10-year goal by preparing over 108,000 excellent STEM teachers for America’s classrooms, surpassing the audacious goal originally set by President Obama.
Accelerated Momentum: Since 2023 alone, our growing coalition has prepared 33,000 new STEM teachers and supported nearly 120,000 more, impacting up to 11 million students nationwide.
Systemic Transformation: Today, 93% of our partners report that network participation keeps them uniquely motivated to stay focused on ending the shortage. A third-party evaluation by Bellwether confirmed that Beyond100K has successfully built a more connected, focused, and prepared community of actors collectively driving impact across the STEM education field.

Our Vision for 2043

While we have recruited and prepared more educators than once thought possible, systemic cracks remain: too many teachers are leaving the profession because the current environment is unsustainable, and too many students of color are excluded from inspiring STEM opportunities.

By 2043, our moonshot goal is to completely end the STEM teacher shortage. We are centering our efforts on schools and communities—specifically Black, Latinx, and Indigenous spaces—where the shortage has been the hardest to solve. By anchoring our work in equity, representation, and belonging, we are mobilizing a movement to ensure every child can contribute their spark to a brighter future.
