| Notes |
Chris Gabrieli, NCTL's other co-founder, continues his education reform mission through his role as CEO of Empower Schools. Empower Schools is supporting the turnaround of schools in the “empowerment zone” in Springfield, MA; advocating for policy changes; doing important work in Denver, CO; and providing support to a variety of other districts. Chris also serves as the Chairman of the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education which recently announced a digital learning initiative with many partners including edX and Partners HealthCare.
A new book featuring NCTL’s impact, Learning Time: In Pursuit of Educational Equity, was released in November 2017. Empower Schools also recently released important new tools resulting from a STEM grant to a network of ELT schools in Massachusetts.
Although Jennifer and Chris are no longer a team leading NCTL’s work, they continue to be dedicated to causes focused on modernizing schools to better meet the needs of all children and to ensure students are prepared for success in higher education, careers and in life.
