Lewis-Burke Associates had provided a report about NSF's new National STEM Teacher Corps Pilot Program. This program aims to elevate PreK-12 teaching in STEM by providing professional development support and by “recognizing outstanding STEM educators who advance equity in our Nation’s preK-12 classrooms.” This program was authorized in the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, was specifically directed in the final fiscal year (FY) 2024 appropriations bill, and is informed by previous NSF programs. The National STEM Teacher Corps Pilot aims to improve STEM education for all students, including those from underserved and underrepresented communities. NSF is seeking proposals to form Regional Alliances for recruiting STEM teachers to become members of the National STEM Teacher Corps. Members will serve a term of at least four years.
