Last fall we made the first Families Fund donations to 24 organizations across 16 states totaling $97.5 million. Thanks to Mike George, who started his role as president in January, we’re also making good progress on Day 1 Academies, applying a beginners mind as we lay the foundation. Mike has met dozens of leaders in early childhood education, including Ray Girn of Higher Ground, Sara Cotner of Montessori For All, Richard Barth of KIPP, Mira Debs at Yale, Sep Kamvar at the Wildflower Schools, Angeline Lillard from the University of Virginia, and Catherine McTamaney from Vanderbilt, just to name a few (and a big thank you to these folks – and countless others – for their wisdom and passion!). Mike’s also spending time observing and learning at Montessori pre-schools. Yesterday he was in Austin at Magnolia Montessori for All. Also, we’ve started our search for key positions, including Head of Education, Head of Technology, and others (link in bio). Excited by the progress and the team of missionaries that will join us to create education opportunities for many thousands of children in underserved communities.」5月1日 6時15分
