From the group mainpage:
"TAB stands for "Teaching for Artistic Behavior" Choice-based teaching and learning delivers in-depth curriculum in the context of student-centered work. An art teaching concept which allows for curriculum to be presented in-depth within the context of work chosen by student artists. Given broad responsibilities and high standards, children are able to organize their reality into vigorous images. Classrooms are arranged as studios, and the effective organization of space, time, and materials enables students to create work which is individual and compelling. Teaching for Artistic Behavior (TAB) is a nationally recognized, choice-based (studio/learning) centers approach to teaching art."
