Collaborations and Partnerships
ETN provides services across a district and to consortiums of
schools. We are currently offering courses for teachers and administrators from small
elementary schools in the Empowerment Zone. Our consultants are providing site-based
support in four of these Empowerment Zone schools.
From 1999-2001 ETN was the professional development provider for a Goals 2000 partnership
with three schools in Community School District 9 focused on art and literacy, and with
ten schools in District 75 focused on developing literacy-rich classroom environments.
Staff from ETN are in working collaborations with Lehman College's Writing Across the
Curriculum Initiative; The Prospect Archive and Center for Education and Research in
North Bennington, Vermont; the Center for Urban Educators at Long Island University; and
IN DEFENSE OF CHILDHOOD: The New York City Campaign to Restore Creative Play and Hands-on
Learning in Preschools and Kindergartens.
From 1996-2002 ETN was one of nine participating New York City professional-development
organizations in the Students at the Center Project, a program in three cities across the
United States funded by the DeWitt Wallace-Readers Digest Fund and the Hayden Foundation.
ETN has collaborated with schools in the following NYC Department of Education regions:
Region 9 (Districts 1, 2, 4, and 7), Region 1 (Districts 9 and 10), and Region 10
(Districts 5 and 6). We have also done extensive work with District 75. ETN site-based
consultants have worked in both neighborhood and alternative schools in these
regions/districts.
