The Haberman Educational Foundation, Inc.

The Haberman Educational Foundation, Inc. is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 based in Houston, TX and was chartered to promote and disseminate the research of Dr. Martin Haberman. The unified and single goal of the Haberman Educational Foundation is to teach and implement research-based models for identifying teachers and principals, particularly educators who serve students at risk and in poverty. The Haberman Educational Foundation, Inc. staff and its Advisory Board of nationally recognized educational leaders believe that for the 15 million children and youth in America who live in poverty, having good teachers and principals is a high-stakes endeavor. Good teachers could give the 15 million children at least an opportunity to pursue the American dream. For this reason, teachers and principals have to be good. To that end and for 40 years, Dr. Martin Haberman, Distinguished Professor, University Wisconsin, Milwaukee, developed, researched, refined, and replicated research in the area of teacher and principal selection . His pioneering efforts are now being highlighted in 160 school districts all across America, especially in areas where there are large numbers of children at risk.
