STEM-CS is a five year federally funded EIR grant with the intention to increase teacher effectiveness in the classroom and increase student achievement in STEM fields. Teacher participants are from seven different GRREC school districts who serve rural communities. The high school cohort will begin project work in the first year of the grant with the middle school cohort joining in the third year. Project work will include completing the U.S. Satellite Laboratory's Endeavor STEM Leadership program and then have the option of pursuing either a Master's degree (to achieve dual-credit certification), Micro-credentials, or National Board Certification. Additionally, the grant will support professional learning opportunities that address understanding poverty, STEM curriculum development, using achievement data, establishing a STEM network, and increasing access to more STEM opportunities for students.
