The Partnership’s primary support is a $22
million dollar grant over five years from the
National Science Foundation (NSF).

AMSP seeks to reform and strengthen math
and science instruction in pre K-12
classrooms in the Central Appalachian
region.

Performance will be improved through the
collaboration of all partners.
A more specific AMSP goal is to eliminate
the math and science achievement gap in
the Central Appalachian region.

Part of AMSP’s strategy is to establish an
integrated elementary, secondary and higher
education system.

The system will feature a continuum of
learning as partners at all levels capitalize
on opportunities to be both teachers and
learners.

The four major related program initiatives are: Pre-service and administrator education
Professional development of pre K-12 personnel
Student learning opportunities, including
parent/community engagement
Research to advance the understanding of rural
education reform

The summer institutes are examples of
professional development activities.
The summer institutes are strongly related
to the other three initiatives.

SUMMER INSTITUTES
They benefit from planning and
development of pre-service coursework that
has occurred.
They will be followed by implementation in
participants’ classrooms.

Evaluation of the institutes and follow-up
implementation will help inform pre-service
courses for teachers, in-service education
and instruction in K-12 classrooms.
