a Contribution to support the
Massachusetts Software Council Education Foundation
For more than a decade, the Massachusetts Software & Internet
Council has had a commitment to assisting K-12 schools in the
area of technology education. In 1996, the Education Foundation
was launched with the Above and Beyond Awards program.
This program recognizes the best practices in the teaching of
math and science at middle schools, and provides the resources
to awardees to document, further develop, package and disseminate
their award winning teaching practices. The awards are targeted
to middle school teachers because they are an important leverage
point in the education of our children, and they greatly influence
students in the pursuit of math and science.
Key educators in Massachusetts have endorsed this program. 100%
of the Trustees of the Massachusetts Software & Internet
Council are also supporting the program with donations and time.
Each year upto 20 winners receive a $1000 grant for classroom
use and a plaque for his or her school. In addition, up to four
teachers receive a $10,000 stipend to write up these best practices
so that they can be integrated into the curriculum and broadly
disseminated across the state. Your contribution will help the
Foundation continue its commitment to teachers throughout Massachusetts.
