Story 2, Program 2 of #3%Matters: Meet Mukondo Banik, the leader of a government school in rural Tripura, walked into one of the classrooms one day. He saw students listening passively to the teacher who was reading a lesson from the textbook. He noticed that the walls of the classroom were mostly bare. A couple of charts had been tacked on the walls but they were old and tearing at the corners.  Until recently, Mukondo Banik had never questioned this but after having attended the block-level meeting a few days ago, he was looking at his school with a fresh pair of eyes. At that meeting, he had met school leaders from the neighbouring schools and they had all discussed their progress against the national benchmark for school quality. The meeting had left him energized and determined to change things at his school. His school was going to become part of a school complex as described in the NEP 2020. All the schools in the complex were going to support each other and share resources. What had seemed an uphill task now seemed very doable. He was looking forward to making an action plan with his teachers and making his school a model school in the future. 4500+ schools began their improvement journey 5000+ school leaders and education officials trained 100,000+ children reached.

“Honoring the Past, Shaping the Future: Living by ‘Res Non Verba’ at FSU” “Res Non Verba”—Deeds, Not Words. This guiding principle from Fayetteville State University (FSU) has been a cornerstone for me since my time as a student, class of 1993. Supporting my alma mater is not just about honoring my roots; it’s about actively investing in our shared future. Whether it’s through mentorship, involvement, or giving back, it’s our actions that truly make a difference. Supporting your alma mater is more than just a donation, it’s about giving back to the institution that shaped your journey. Whether it’s mentoring students, participating in alumni events, or contributing resources, every effort helps build a stronger community and a next generation. It’s a way to honor the legacy that continues to shape future generations, ensuring that the value of our education continues to grow. Let’s uplift the places that laid our foundations and continue to pave the way for others. Let’s be about our educational business while ensuring that our deeds make a lasting impact. #FSUAlumni #ResNonVerba #BroncoPride #GiveBack #Education #GenerationalWealth #Legacy #HBCU #CollegeLife #Donate #AlmaMater #Universities #MasterMinds #Educators #Supporters #GoodDeeds #FayettevilleNC

“A curious mind is never bored” - Min Kim Learning is never confined within school walls. Learning with nature is an opportunity for students to foster curious minds. A curious mind asks questions and seeks out solutions. A skill we want our students to be equipped with while facing the real world challenges. #education #ontarioeducation #wrdsb #altlearning #continuingeducation
