Presenting the Ä¢¹½AV STEM Schools Network

We are excited to present the Ä¢¹½AV STEM Schools Network, a consortium of distinguished schools who have demonstrated a commitment to STEM education and opportunities through the Ä¢¹½AV CSE. We developed this network to better connect these teachers and schools across our broad community. Schools may apply for this competitive recognition and awarded schools will have access to many benefits.
