With a donation to Greater New Orleans STEM Initiative – GNOSTEM (formerly Core Element), you can make a difference in STEM education for children across the Greater New Orleans region.
GNOSTEM provides kindergarten through 12th grade math and science teachers with the tools and resources they need to deliver hands-on, minds-on learning opportunities in the classroom. GNOSTEM’s teacher professional development programs ensure that students receive the rigorous and enriched classroom instruction they need to encourage critical thinking and ultimately foster student proficiency and interest in STEM subjects and careers.
Since 2007, the Greater New Orleans STEM Initiative has trained more than 700 teachers and impacted more than 65,000 students. Through teacher professional development, GNOSTEM is equipping the next generation of students with the STEM skills and knowledge to become truly engaged citizens in our community.
