Supporting STEM Education in Northern New Mexico |
CLOSED
Announcement: $2,000 in funding is available for Science Technology Mathematics and Engineering (STEM) Education Grants for the Fall semester 2019. This funding is available to K-12 teachers in Northern New Mexico counties identified below.
Dear Educator:
We know through our experience that partnerships promote lasting relationships and impact many citizens. Partnering with Los Alamos National Laboratory, its managing partner TRIAD, and Century Bank, the Bradbury Science Museum Association is announcing a continuation of its successful STEM grant program for Northern New Mexico Teachers. We hope your participating in this grant program will enhance your ability to increase STEM activities for your students.
NEW for the Fall 2019 semester! Century Bank, Los Alamos National Laboratory (TRIAD), and The Bradbury Science Museum Association (BSMA) will make 20 STEM education grants (up to $100 each) available. Certified teachers in the seven Northern New Mexico counties listed below may apply. These STEM grants are intended to fund STEM learning activities for students that teachers would otherwise be unable to provide.
Spring 2020 grants are planned as part of this partnership.
Grants must address activities designed to promote STEM education in the classroom and should be described in reasonable detail in the application form below. Once the 20 grants are allotted for the fall semester, no more will be available until the spring semester. Grants must directly support STEM classroom activities.
What can you do with the money?
Here are some examples of activities that teachers who received grants in the Spring of 2019 used their grant funding for:
School | Project Title |

Barranca Elementary, Los Alamos | 3D Blocks |
