Hewlett-Packard Middle School Science Leadership Grant Deadline: October 8th, 2004
Hewlett-Packard has recently issued a Request for Proposals for middle schools who would like to attend the LASER Middle School Science Leadership Symposium to be held in Atlanta, GA this coming December.
Districts in which more than 50% of the students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch may apply for this grant from HP. Up to 11 middle school teams will be selected to receive a scholarship package that covers the cost of symposium registration as well as a "presentation package" of HP technology valued at approximately $6,000 (laptop, projector, and digital camera). The HP grant application and LASER registration must be completed and returned to the NSRC before October 8th.
This grant opportunity is specifically targeted to low-income serving school districts that are committed to improving science education in their middle schools. This symposium is also an excellent way for school districts to strategically address science achievement in advance of the upcoming No Child Left Behind science assessments being implemented across the country in 2006/2007.
