A Note from the Co-Founders

Happy Quaver Day! 

About sixteen years ago, we set out to create engaging and meaningful resources for educators and students. Our mission was and still is: Enriching the Lives of Children. Today, we celebrate not just how far we’ve come in that mission but also the incredible QuaverEd community of 28,000 educators who share our passion.

Every day, educators like you bring learning to life in classrooms across the country and beyond. Only through you can we reach millions of children and enrich their lives. As we celebrate Quaver Day, we hope you will take a moment to reflect on the impact you make.  Here’s to another year of making a difference—together!

With grace and gratitude,
David Mastran and Graham Hepburn
