At the national level, the National Science Foundation Math and Science Partnership enacts a portion of the Presidents vision, enunciated in No Child Left Behind, to strengthen and reform preK-12 education. The program seeks to demonstrate improved student achievement in mathematics and science through support of partnerships that join the efforts of teachers, administrators and guidance counselors in local school districts with science, mathematics, engineering and education faculties of colleges and universities. The purpose of the FOCUS! partnership is to improve mathematics and science achievement in three high-need California school districts by uniting the efforts of mathematics, science, education and research library faculty and staff with educators from local community colleges and educational support agencies and school districts. |
