Every student deserves real-world learning opportunities throughout their education
Julia and Sara began reaching out to professionals in elementary school, starting with leaders of one of the world’s largest 3D-printing companies. Those early experiences showed them how much students can learn when they are given the tools to explore beyond the classroom.
Years later, their classroom assignments have reached more than 700 school districts, education leaders in all fifty states, senior government officials, and schools in ten countries. Teachers Around Us gives students a practical roadmap for creating these opportunities themselves, the communication, confidence, resilience, and professional skills that come with them.
