(Lapel Pin pictured above 3/4" diameter)
The World Teacher Foundation (WTF) is an parody foundation created by NYC teachers in 2003 who were fed up with: unreasonable mandates, untested programs,
and unnecessary paper work.
Starting with after-school happy hours, activities expanded to include ski trips, bowling outings, horseback riding, softball games, and karaoke.
This increased camaraderie and sense of team.
Interested teachers and educational professionals can start a local chapter of the WTF by simply announcing happy hours or other events.

What is the mission of the World Teacher Foundation?
THE MISSION
The purpose of The World Teacher Foundation (WTF) is to encourage educators to consider possible alternatives whenever you find yourselves asking hard questions about educational rules and regulations such as:
"WTF were they thinking?", or
"Where did they get their professional diplomas?” or
"Who would ever, in their right mind, do that?".
Behind these initial reactions, there is often an underlying commitment to making things better. We teachers frequently know how to move forward using our expertise, experience, intuition and common sense. Your guiding purpose can be revealed by looking at what made you enter the profession in the first place.
The WTF exists as a reaction to extreme mismanagement. It would be unprofessional to simply accept unsound educational policy without considering some alternatives.
Embracing WTF
You can embrace the spirit of WTF by simply announcing a happy hour for your organization. No profanity is required, just a statement of "WTF" to join the cause.
