Our 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 McCarthey Dressman Education 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
-- After-school programs that enrich and inspire
The Foundation partners with individuals to expand educational
opportunities for America’s youth that inspire students by nurturing
their curiosity about the world and their place in it. Funding includes
scholarships that provide far more than just tuition and books; grants
that benefit the lives of more than just those who receive them; and
results that reach far beyond the classroom in which the projects are
introduced.
