Chapter Honors STEM Teachers With Grants

The chapter held its annual Teaching Tool Grant Awards luncheon in late January. The chapter honors up to a dozen STEM-focused teachers in the Atlanta region with stipends to help purchase materials, services or supplies for a STEM-related activity with their students. This year's winners include Sheila Harmony of Coleman Middle School, Kimberly Hutcheson of Baker Elementary School and Maria Brown of Washington Park Elementary School. The teachers provided a synopsis of how they intend to use the funds, explained how they shape their young charges and pledged to share pictures and updates with the chapter.
