DescriptionThe Foundation’s mission is to serve as a catalyst in maximizing the skills and creativity of educators at the K-12 levels and in cultivating pioneering approaches to teaching that result in dynamic student learning. The Foundation sponsors proposals that enhance student learning and educational quality, paying particular attention to those that best serve the at-risk and under-funded including curriculum that excites and challenges; inquiry projects that promote reflection and growth; and after school programs that enrich and inspire.
