EDUCATION LAB
“This is such an important time for us to be doubling down on public education. Because it is easy at times like this, at a time of crisis, to have the long game get lost. I’m a big believer that the long game for the State of Texas – and North Texas – is the state of our education system.” -Grant Moise, Publisher and President, The Dallas Morning News
CFT and Educate Texas are two of the initial funders pledging $210,000 annually for two years to support the launch. Other funders include The Meadows Foundation, The Dallas Foundation, Southern Methodist University, Todd A. Williams Family Foundation, The Beck Group, and Bobby and Lottye Lyle. CFT will serve as the fiscal sponsor in managing the funds. While this effort is community funded, The Dallas Morning News will retain full editorial control of the Education Lab to ensure high quality, independent journalism.
