science teacher program: How it works

The Science Teachers Program brings Arkema scientists and teachers together. Principals and local teachers from grades three through six and encouraged to complete an application to a program near them. Applications are reviewed by each site and chosen based on student impact, geographic location, and interest in STEM topics.

Each school principal and teacher must complete an application form, which requests information about the nominated teachers.
Selection criteria include:

interest in science
leadership potential
student impact
geographic location

Teachers and principals are notified by email of their selection and receive a package of information describing the program and schedule of events.

The annual application process typically starts in the beginning of the year and rolls throughout May, with many programs happening in July. However, each site Science Teachers Program operates independently, and timelines may vary.

For more information about your local program, reach out to the Science Teachers Program Coordinator.

“All mentors were extremely helpful and open to discussion on not only science but how we can better support students to be great thinkers for future employment!”
