The Coastal North Carolina Chapter of AFCEA offers Annual Science
Teaching Tools Awards to deserving science teachers or programs in
our
Eastern North Carolina
area. This program is
sponsored by the International AFCEA Educational Foundation to
promote effective science teaching and to enhance the abilities of
capable teachers in secondary schools nationwide.
To select this
year’s winner(s), we’re asking for a simple proposal that
addresses the teacher’s skills, potential to use the funds well,
number of students, and financial need.
We have multiple awards of $1,000 to award this year. In the
past, these funds have been used to support the purchase of
“consumable materials” to support experiments and programs in
science education.
Proposal should be emailed
to Mr Dan Egge at daniel.egge@usmc.mil
or mailed to 201 S. Shore Dr. Jacksonville, NC 28540, no later than
