“What 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?” Trish Millines Dziko, shares this reality in TAF schools. Watch now on TED: bit.ly/3B3HJLh
Are you coming to the Volunteer Appreciation Celebration tomorrow? We hope to see you at TAF Bethaday Learning Space from 5-7pm!
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?
Did you RSVP for our Volunteer Appreciation Celebration next week? Do it now if you're a TAF volunteer or community partner: buff.ly/3UHWsDX !
This week, two presenters who couldn't make the Convening are hosting their sessions virtually! Come recapture the conversation and energy from the Convening with them. The first is this Wednesday buff.ly/3Q5LSFb , and the second is this Friday buff.ly/4aZc7p2
So, what is this TransformED program at the center of #OneStudentInfiniteFutures ? It is a partnership between TAF and public schools. Our STEMbyTAF coaches work side-by-side with teachers and principals providing daily support and regular professional development.
This partnership brings real-world, relevant, project based learning to our students. Want to help us continue this work? Go to buff.ly/3QJlAZK to learn more or donate now!
We love our #OneStudentInfiniteFutures design!!! 😍😍😍 Here's a massive shoutout to the artist behind it who goes by @entangledoceans on Instagram. Check out her work there and here: buff.ly/3K5u7SY and check back next week for our profile of this phenomenal artist!
Volunteer Appreciation Week might be over, but we're not done appreciating our volunteers! We're inviting all TAF volunteers and community partners to our main office at TAF Bethaday Community Learning Space to celebrate you. RSVP now! buff.ly/3UFHGO3
Next week, two presenters who couldn't make the Convening are re-doing the sessions that they would have done virtually! The first is on May 22 buff.ly/4cXRCLd , and the second is May 24th buff.ly/3JkVyb4 Register now!
That's a full ride, so we must help spread the word 📢. The teaching program application is open until June 1st, so if you or anyone you know might be interested visit the Antioch website to learn more information or contact Heather Cheney at [email protected].
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.
By investing in ONE of our students, you open access to INIFINITE future possibilities for them. Learn more or donate here: buff.ly/4bCIqdw

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 ❤️ 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: buff.ly/3wkMT5H
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! buff.ly/3UgQBW0
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. ❤️
