Joshua Reese of Hazelwood, Mo., a teacher at Ferguson Middle School, is among 10 middle school teachers selected to participate in the National STEM Scholar professional development program.
STEM Scholars collaborate on the Western Kentucky University campus for a week of advanced STEM training, and are provided with national network building opportunities and project support for middle school science teachers nationwide.
“STEM matters because it gives my students – especially those who look like me – the tools to question the world, build their own solutions, and see themselves as creators,” said Reese.
