Thank you for helping TAF create equitable learning environments, especially for brown and black students and teachers. This past year, we established dedicated equity training for our staff and teachers, strengthening our commitment in ensuring all of our work is rooted in racial equity.
Here's what else you helped us accomplish this year:
