The Trefler Foundation strives to be a learning organization. As a small foundation we look to our colleagues and our networks within the community, as well as to national experts, opinion leaders, and innovators to help us make thoughtful, strategic progress.
Some of the resources that we have found valuable in our recent program and project development include:
...Facts about the Teacher Quality Crisis on TalentedTeachers.org
...Characteristics of Leaders of Change on SEDL.org
...Resources on TeacherLeaders.org
...Leadership for Student Learning: Redefining the Teacher as Leader (PDF)
...The Leadership Deficit, Stanford Social Innovation Review
We are grateful for the advice and inspiration of Dr. Arthur Levine of the Woodrow Wilson Fellowships (www.woodrowwilson.org, and www.edschools.org) whose bold ideas have challenged us to think more deeply and act more intentionally.
Others who helped us reflect on our work include:
...Dr.
Lee Teitel, author of The Professional Development Schools Handbook:

...Drs. Lisa Gonsalves and John Leonard, authors of New Hope for Urban High Schools: Cultural Reform, Moral Leadership,
and Community Partnership (Click here).
