STEM Education Innovators (SEI): Elementary Cohort

Join Today for 2026 Cohort

  • Are you an elementary STEM teacher?
  • Would you like to develop your Teacher Leader skills and further develop your content knowledge and instructional strategies?
  • Would you like to participate in a network of like-minded educators focused on improving STEM education?
    • Two people collaborate at a table with laptops, papers, notebooks, and drinks in a classroom.

    We are thrilled to announce our new STEM Education Innovators: Elementary Cohort, now open for application.

    Participants will develop their Teacher Leader and Mentoring skills while working with subject matter experts to solve a STEM education problem they have identified in their community. This three-year commitment requires participants to stay in the classroom for the duration of the program. A salary stipend of $7,500 per year of participation will be paid to educators in the cohort.

    The application will open and close . Participants will be notified of cohort selection by mid-May. The program will begin in August 2026. For more information or to apply, check out the documents below. If you have any questions about this program, contact Kellie Yates at [email protected].
