Help 90,000 Bulgarian students thrive

Dear supporters, 

The summer approaches and as usual, this is a very intensive season for Teach For Bulgaria’s team - time for planning and training for the upcoming school year. We are very excited to share the latest news about our Model Schools program.

The first cohort of 20 schools graduated from the Model School program at the beginning of the month. Over 200 educators - directors and teachers gathered in Veliko Tarnovo for a ceremony to celebrate the end of their participation in the program. The first cohort of Model Schools participants will continue to be part of our community and act as ambassadors of the program among other schools in Bulgaria. 

One class graduates and another one is ready to start. In May, we selected the new 25 schools to join the Model Schools program for the next 2 years. Among them, we have 16 new partners - schools that have never participated in our programs or training. For the first time in this program, we have partner schools from Veliko Tarnovo, Stara Zagora, and Gabrovo regions. Their first training session will take place in August when they will learn more about the student-centered approach in the classroom. We are happy to welcome them into our community and look forward to working with them for the success of every child. 

Model Schools could not expand and reach new students without your support. We are very grateful to have you as a partner! To achieve our goal - improve 10% of the public schools in Bulgaria - we need more supporters. Help us reach out to them: spread the word about our work and invite your connections to join the campaign.

With gratitude, 

Teach For Bulgaria’s team
