The Norwalk Education Foundation is an independent, nonprofit organization committed to quality public education for all of Norwalk's children. We effect positive change by providing programs and funds for innovative classroom instruction, teacher and technology training, and a variety of learning opportunities beyond the school day. We advocate for quality public school education by improving teacher quality through classroom innovation and technology training, by offering students technology, literacy, and enrichment programs, by collaborating with other community groups to improve public education, and by being a critical friend to the Norwalk Public School system. As a business owner or manager, you need capable employees to help your business expand and grow. As a home owner, your property values are linked to the perceived quality of the public schools. A high quality education prepares our children to meet the demands of both an increasingly complex workplace and world.
