Mobilization Aims Toward 100000 New, Excellent Math And Science Teachers For ...

(Media-Newswire.com) - In an effort to increase the supply of new math and science teachers and retain excellent teachers currently in the classroom, a group of 28 educational and corporate partners today announced 100Kin10, a movement aimed toward preparing 100,000 new, excellent math and science teachers over the next 10 years. The movement is a response to an urgent public call for change made most visibly in President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address to prepare our country’s students to address the most pressing national and global challenges and to ensure that all children have the basic science, technology, engineering and math ( STEM ) literacy necessary to be full participants in our economy and our democracy.  Initial commitments by partners, including Carnegie Corporation of New York, Opportunity Equation, NewSchools Venture Fund, and the S. D. Bechtel, Jr. Foundation are responding to this need.

Current partners have committed to expanding the movement and creating a funding base of $20 million that will support as many as 100 innovative programs to develop and retain outstanding math and science teachers.  100Kin10 is calling for applications from non-profits, foundations, corporations, school districts and other organizations interested in contributing to the expansion of the nation’s science and math teaching force.  More information can be found at www.100Kin10.org.  

“The 28 partners are tackling the President's challenge from three directions: by increasing the supply of excellent STEM teachers; by developing and supporting STEM teachers so that our schools retain excellent talent, thereby reducing the need for new teachers; and by building the movement so that the quest for 100,000 excellent STEM teachers can succeed,” said Michele Cahill, Co-Chair of the Opportunity Equation and Vice President for National Programs, Carnegie Corporation of New York, which is coordinating the funders’ collaborative.  “But these efforts alone, though significant, are not equal to the challenge.  We need others with the demonstrated ability to develop outstanding teachers and to build this movement to join us.”

100Kin10 was announced at the Education in America: Regaining Our Edge session of the Clinton Global Initiative America Meeting in Chicago and included comments by President Bill Clinton as well as the introduction of several of the 100Kin10 partners.

Baltimore City Public School System Screws Teachers and Tax Payers ...

Dialysis sessions haven't cleaned her blood much. She fell, mom fell... I got one of those "oh my" text messages in the middle of my class on Wednesday.

But you know what? My son and daughter-in-law were there in a flash. Christy rode in her first Sherman ambulance to the new hospital in town. She is much better now. Mom is OK. They didn't have to deal with this trauma alone and that's why they moved to Sherman. Seriously, it could be worse. AND, the day after the medical meltdown we got a contract on mom's house in OKC. Oh happy day! No one is counting any chickens until the sale is complete but we are all breathing easier. And all this while I am away from home. I am thankful for the technology that keeps me touch when I'm gone.
