STEM Teaching Fellows are Fellows for life.
After completing the formal program, Fellows have opportunities to continue developing as STEM teacher leaders as Senior Fellows. Senior Fellows continue to grow as educators, provide vision for their schools, and help flourish a national network of STEM teachers working to be a force for good in their communities.
Senior Fellows Goals:
- Grow professionally through community.
- Support and elevate the work of the STEM Teaching Fellowship.
- Measure, communicate and celebrate the impact of STEM education on students and communities.
