The Stanford Pre-Education Society (SPREES) is Stanford University’s first pre-professional society for undergraduates pursuing careers in education, particularly teaching. We believe in encouraging a new generation of talented students to pursue careers in education and providing them with the support they need to get there.
Students at “elite” institutions like Stanford often overlook careers in teaching and education. We are here to change that. SPREES believes that guidance and mentorship can inspire exceptional students to become leaders in the field of education.
