We are very excited to share that six of our Elementary Schools were awarded STEM Grants – $5000 each: Alton Darby, Brown, Crossing, Hoffman Trails, Horizon, and Ridgewood.
The grant that six of our elementary schools revived was funded by Battelle. The grant program fosters the growth of the Ohio STEM Learning Network as a public-private partnership between Battelle and the State of Ohio. Providing more access for all students to experience quality science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education is Battelle’s top philanthropic priority.
“Battelle is proud to invest in the hundreds of educators who submitted ideas to expand STEM learning for their students,” said Wes Hall, Vice President of Philanthropy & Education. “Together, we can inspire a new generation to solve the most pressing challenges of the future.”
Classrooms will receive award grants of as much as $5,000. Projects aligned to at least one of four focus areas:
- Community Problem Solving
- STEM Career Exploration
- Building STEM Mindsets
- Design Thinking and Security
