LEARN ·2023 Grants ChallengeClosing the Math Gap to Promote Success in STEM Careers
If the U.S. is to continue to lead the world in pioneering the technologies, industries, and jobs of the future, it must increase number of BIPOC youth pursuing STEM. Math competency is essential for success in STEM, and 80% of Black, Latino and economically disadvantaged students (Target Students) don't meet math standards. Leveraging strategies that have produced 5 years of near across the board outperform by Target Students, we'll increase the number with the interest, confidence, background and foundational math skills to pursue STEM.
