July 8 – As the Obama administration continues to champion the critical importance of 21st century learning skills for America’s students, we announced today that we'll be providing a $1 million grant – our second such donation in as many years – to provide high school teachers and administrators at NAF career-themed public school Academies with innovative professional development and support.
Announced by NAF President JD Hoye and our Pearson Foundation President Mark Nieker at the National Academy Foundation’s 2009 Institute for Staff Development in Phoenix, today’s donation continues the Pearson Foundation’s commitment to NAF’s career academy model and extends its funding to help train more than 1,000 NAF high school teachers via regional in-person sessions and enhanced sustained online training.
