βWhat would happen if we rebuilt public schools to develop the genius in every student and give them the tools to be critical thinkers, problem solvers, ideators and leaders?β Trish Millines Dziko, shares this reality in TAF schools. Watch now on TED: https://t.co/IIG9NWIHgc
Not only can 5th graders at TransformED school Brigadoon Elementary tell you all about surviving in the wilderness without technology, they are also native plant experts. That was the focus of their presentation of learning late last month. Can you name any native plants?

How far could a student go if the only limit to learning was their own imagination? Your investment in TransformED education could help make that a reality! TAF needs your help to combat inequitable school systems and school district budget deficits.
Beyond #TeacherAppreciationWeek TAF shows our love for teachers by making sure to have their backs when we partner with their schools. When we support teachers, we open up limitless possibilities for our students. TAF β€οΈ teachers!
Our TAF students also have lots of love for their teachers this #TeacherAppreciationWeek. Here's one of TAF@Saghalie Humanities teacher Jennifer Giuffre's students talking about why Ms. G is a teacher like no other. You can see more on our blog: https://t.co/nGeUQNGx4e
We're still appreciating teachers this week. One way we do that for teachers of color is through the community of support that they get through the Martinez Fellowship. If you or someone you know is an early career teacher, apply now! https://t.co/QqCL7Oi4Fq
This #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we'd like to give a special shoutout to our courageous teachers who are changing the educational status quo with us. Darcel Carter teaches at our TransformED partner school First Creek Middle School and we are so glad she took a chance on STEMbyTAF!
It's Teacher Appreciation Week, and we at TAF know that we cannot transform education and impact students without teachers! We will be showing love and appreciation for them all week. β€οΈ
