Often, educators who think a little differently come up with brilliant ways to engage and connect with students and their school and larger communities. Such is the case with the individuals we profile for our 2023 Innovation Issue. From a new kind of FITE Club focused on growing educators to Project Like, which connects college students to community agencies, these educators imagined what could be – and made it happen.

Kudos to them, and to innovative educators everywhere!
