Partnership Program for Excellence in Mathematics,
Science, and Technology
NJ SSI has developed a Partnership Program for Excellence in Mathematics, Science and Technology to work with districts to improve mathematics and science education K-12. Each of the five NJ SSI Regional Centers are offering a 12-day, 60-hour program. The Program seeks to improve local district mathematics and science test scores on statewide assessments and provide districts with coherent, consistent support for implementing standards-based curricula. Through strategic planning, participating districts will identify professional development needs, use data for decision-making, develop more effective instructional methodologies, and build capacity for reform. Information is a key to success, and the program enables districts to reflect on existing student achievement patterns and plan appropriate improvement strategies.
For further information, please contact the Regional Center for your county or the NJ SSI central offices at 732-445-2241. Information and registration materials for the 2007-2008 Program are available now.*
The twelve days of the Partnership Program includes four days during the school year, five more in the summer and three days in the following school year.
