Exemplary Educators

EIN 82-4609897 • 501(c)3 • Phoenix, AZ

Profile

Our mission is foundational support for educators to provide outstanding education for children. Our goal is to have exceptional educators in every classroom. Due to non traditional certification methods, record numbers of teachers leaving the profession, and declines in teachers with experience, the education field has many novice, inexperienced teachers. We are working to accelerate the learning of novice teachers so all children have exceptional teachers. We support teachers directly in the classroom with the foundations of teaching: classroom management, lesson planning, lesson delivery.
