Other Grant and Awards Opportunites

In addition, GCTM seeks to inform Georgia math teachers about other grant and award opportunities.

The White House, in conjunction with the National Science Foundation, is now accepting nominations of qualified candidates for the Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST), the nation’s highest honor for mathematics and science teachers. Educators can recognize an outstanding colleague with a nomination for the prestigious presidential awards.

To nominate a K-6 mathematics or science teacher, or to learn more about the presidential awards program, please visit PAMST

Presidential award-winning teachers serve as models for their colleagues and leaders in the improvement of mathematics and science education. The application process provides a rare opportunity for concentrated self-reflection, and all 2006 awardees will have the opportunity to network with each other and exchange effective teaching strategies and innovative methods during a week-long trip to Washington, DC for an awards ceremony and a variety of special recognition events. Additionally, each awardee will receive a citation from the President of the United States and a $10,000 award from the National Science Foundation.
