“The training experience was exceptional, and the best STEM training I have ever attended. As someone who did not previously consider themselves confident in teaching STEM, it has been exciting to bring this knowledge back into the classroom and share it with my colleagues.” Mackenzie Allpress, 3rd Grade: Cottonwood Elementary School, WA.

With congressional funding earmarked for education, curriculum leaders and administrators from Central Kitsap School District in Washington state were on the lookout for new materials to support their teaching goals. After seeing success in STEM among teachers who were already using EiE^® units in their classrooms, Doug Dowell, STEM Coordinator and Grant Supervisor for CKSD, sought to partner with EiE to expand upon that success district-wide.

As part of our ongoing mission to bring high-quality, equitable STEM learning to students everywhere, Diana Christopherson, one of EiE^®’s Professional Development Managers, has just returned from a trip to Nome, Alaska supporting a training opportunity for local STEM educators.

At EiE^® we are committed to supporting the entire learning process, from the academic subject itself to the emotional skills needed to prepare students for the world ahead of them.

This PRIDE month, we’re thrilled to celebrate LGBTQIA+ People in STEM.
