Background

About Anna Forward

I love to be inspired, and I went into education to do that for others. As an innovative and community-focused educational leader with 20 years of experience, I'm passionate about inspiring both children and fellow educators. I am honored to coach, mentor, and share best practices with colleagues. I love the intersection of education and technology, using it to enhance access to learning and empower teachers. I've recently deepened my focus on leadership development and strategic skill-building to enrich my work in advising and supporting families and educators. My approach emphasizes the connection between learning and demonstrable outcomes; I strive to create an environment that fosters both individual and collective success. My experience in education, child development, family engagement, and technology integration is guided by creativity, innovation, and a strong commitment to community. I earned my Master's Degree from Mills College and my Bachelor's Degree from Brandeis University.
