Science Teachers Strive to Excel in Region 9
by Leslie Patrick
March 14, 2008
Some science teachers in Region 9 are part of a Collaborative for Excellence in Science Teaching. These teachers are called Science Teacher Mentors and have goals of obtaining 105 hours of credit in science content training over twelve months. Another goal is mentoring five other teachers in science during the same time. We would like to recognize these districts, campuses, and teachers for the extra efforts they are giving to help their students.
