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.
