I am the president of our school board at Franklin Country School Corporation in Brookville, In. I would like to start a NASA Stem project starting in school year 2022-2023. Does anyone know where I need to start?

Wait, you're a teacher and you're on the school board? Did I read that right? I didn't think that was possible.

Seems like she is only on the school board. Now that you mentioned that though…who is going to run this program? I hope she checks that this program she sets up doesn’t step on the toes of another teacher who presents Space. Maybe this is going to be a club?

I would contact one of the Challenger Learning Centers. There is one in Hammand, IN and Louisville, KY (closest options for IN). They partnered with NASA to create space mission simulations. They have stem activities listed on their websites, they could give you info for educatonal resources, and their field trips are super cool. I went on one with middle schoolers, as part of a science fair completion "prize" if you will. Even as one of the adults, it was fun.

A other good resource might even be your closest local museum/planitarium. Most have educational directors.

I LOVE the Challenger field trip! I taught in Pittsburgh (I retired last June) and we did this field trip every year in WV. Since we had a big team of students, usually around 110, they had great activities to complete while we split our team in morning/afternoon mission times. I agree with you about the simulation of being “mission control” and “astronaut” in the spaceship. Challenger is enjoyed by all, even the teachers!

Check with a company named Snapology. They are an amazing STEM company.

Thank you!!

NASA has an education for K-12 Stem program. Go on line to look it up. I’m sure it’s just a matter of getting in touch with them. While I taught ELA, my teammate had many opportunities/lessons through NASA during her space unit. She had several days where NASA reps presented cool experiments and speakers. Do it soon. The dates fill up fast!

Ok

You need to start by talking to some teachers to see who will teach it and what they are willing to do. As a school board member you have no business introducing curriculum.

Check with the Science teachers in your school district. Teachers often have great ideas, but are overlooked for a company that sells “canned curriculum.” As a teacher, I often feel I am never consulted for new curriculum and I have 25+ years experience!

smart

Do you share your ideas for curriculum with your principal?

Following— cause I want start a NASA Girls at my school but have no idea where to start either!

I’m thinking about giving NASA K-12 a call.

I did see they have a professional development for stem, cost $1250.00 but my district would not want to pay

I will definitely let you know, I just hate to pay

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.
