Rationale for Foundation Giving
Foundations and community organizations have a unique opportunity to support the train-the-teacher model and make a tangible difference in today's classroom education and the future of tomorrow.
Here's why your support matters:
- Connect Students to Communities: By funding the train-the-teacher model, you can help connect high school students to their local communities through project-based learning. This approach not only enhances student engagement but also fosters a sense of civic responsibility and community involvement.
- Strengthen Teacher Practice: Your support enables teachers to continuously strengthen their everyday practice by providing them with proven teaching strategies and professional development opportunities. This investment in teacher training ensures that educators have the knowledge and skills to effectively engage and educate their students.
- Promote College and Career Readiness: By supporting the train-the-teacher model, you contribute to improving local socio-economic development. The emphasis on college and career readiness in high school graduates prepares students for success beyond the classroom, increasing their opportunities for higher education and meaningful employment.
- Address Educational Disparities: Your donations can provide scholarships for teachers and much-needed funding for disadvantaged, low-income school districts. This support helps bridge educational disparities, ensuring that all students have access to quality education and equal opportunities.
