We are proud to share that Ton R. Barton, Incoming Chief Executive Officer, has been selected for the 2025–2026 Google GSV Education Innovation Fellowship.
This national program brings together 32 school leaders from across the country who are working to improve how students learn using new ideas and technology. The Fellowship is a partnership between Google for Education and GSV, a group that supports innovation in education and career development.
As a Fellow, Toni will work with other leaders who support more than 3.8 million students. Together, they will learn from each other, share ideas, and create new ways to help students and schools succeed.
“What began as a bold vision just two years ago has grown into a dynamic community of K–12 leaders driving meaningful change,” said Tiffany Taylor, Co-President of the ASU+GSV Summit. “These 32 leaders are not just ready for what’s next—they are helping to shape it, using today’s best tools and ideas to make schools better.”
“I’m proud to represent E.L. Haynes in this network of forward-thinking educators,” said Barton. “The Google GSV Fellowship will offer cutting-edge insights that build on our legacy while supporting and inspiring us to imagine what’s next for teaching, learning, and student success at E.L. Haynes.”
We are proud to see Toni recognized for her leadership and excited for the knowledge and energy she will bring back to E.L. Haynes through this opportunity.
