Engage your community, students and parents in scientific thinking and activity through JASON Learning.
Superintendents are responsible for preparing their community for a jobs-driven economy that will be fueled by STEM careers. Success in science learning requires a holistic approach—students must be supported by their entire community in order to value scientific literacy and achieve at high levels. This can only happen when there is cultural alignment and support for STEM. JASON provides districts with a proven solution for connecting classroom learning with community communication and engagement, making this alignment possible—and effective!
This partnership, which benefits a diverse range of students, uses the latest technology to bring experts from throughout the world to our classrooms. It also provides districts with lesson plans, assessments and comprehensive professional development programs. In addition, you, the superintendent, will be a part of AASA's STEM Leadership Consortia.
To receive this grant, superintendents must become members of the AASA STEM Leadership Consortia. The purpose of the STEM Leadership Consortia is to develop and support a cadre of STEM focused superintendents who understand the complexity of school culture and the urgency of increasing student interest in STEM fields. Consortia members meet 2 times annually:
-Virtual, via Zoom – November 5 - 6, 2020
-New Orleans, La. – February 18 - 20, 2021 (during the AASA national conference)
The annual consortia participant fee of $1,000 for the year includes participation in two in-person cohort meetings and quarterly online meetings.
