What is the purpose of the TGR Learning Labs, and where was the first site established?
During 2010/2011-time frame I visited Hrag Hamalian in Los Angeles, to find out about the charter school he was running, called Valor Academy. I am an advocate of charter schools. I do not regard Armenian run charter schools as a back door to teach Armenian. I regard it as a genuine call for Armenian-American educators to bring their expertise in running schools to better serve the state of education in Los Angeles, Southfield (MI) or anywhere else in the U.S.
Hrag graciously hosted me. I almost spend half a day with him. He showed me the school he was running and invited to attend a classroom or two, witness the orderliness in the school. It was very impressive to see a young Armenian man Hrag Hamalian is engaged in such an endeavor.
I read that the TGR Foundation is built on Tiger’s belief in the power of education and the foundation he has initiated is making a positive impact on the lives of students from under-resourced communities
TGR Foundation will be the beneficiary of Hrag Hamalian’s vision and experience.
