Centennial School District (CSD) has been awarded a MHCRC TechSmart Initiative grant of $1,043,495 to implement a four-year project using project-based learning instruction to develop a cohesive, technology-rich, integrated math and science curriculum for 7-9th grade students. The project aims to address an identified need to improve student outcomes in math and science, close the achievement gaps between student groups, as well as increase math and science credit attainment in 9th grade. The project will begin in the school year 2018-2019 with a small cohort of experienced teacher teams along with the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) coach.
