STEM Research Grants provide support to teachers engaging their students in grades 6 – 12 in authentic scientific research. Teachers can apply by Oct 31st for up to $5,000 to purchase specialized equipment or $1,000 in preselected equipment including Arduino starter kits, camera traps, and PocketLab sensors. Over 5 years, $575,000 has been awarded to 283 teachers. Priority consideration is given to schools that support students who are underrepresented in STEM or those who come from low-income communities. Last year the Society for Science provided STEM research equipment kits and funding to 95 middle and high school educators to help their students conduct research outside the classroom.
