During this month of Thanksgiving, we have been reflecting on the things we are most grateful for. The STEM Institute would like to take this opportunity to give thanks to many people.
Primary among them is the talented group of teachers we have the privilege of working with, both past and present. Jim Effinger worded it best this summer when he said, "We learn from you and your classroom experiences that you share with us." We appreciate your taking time out of your busy lives to further your professional education. We thank our partner institutions, who provide valuable resources and additional educational opportunitites to our participants. We thank the STEM Institute faculty, for without your dedication, creativity, and high standards, we would not be the thriving program we are today. We are grateful for the generosity of our funders, including John Canning, Polk Bros Foundation and Lloyd A. Fry Foundation. And we thank our suppotive board and leadership team. On behalf of the STEM Institute, thank you for your support and commitment to our program.
