Academy for Teachers of Science and Mathematics

In operation since 1991, this annual event brings teachers and school administrators together on campus. Teachers participate in a four-week residential program, and administrators attend a three-day workshop. The goal of the program is to encourage new and exciting ways of presenting math and science by moving away from teaching the subjects as independent bodies of information and skills. Alumni of the program are networked through the internet and participate in annual meetings.
