Utilizing, an $11,000 Florida Power and Light grant that the Flagler County Education Foundation secured last year, Flagler Schools held a STEM training event for teachers on March 9.
The grant is a part of FPL's Empowering STEM Educators program to increase teacher knowledge of effective math and science instructional practices that align with Florida Standards through peer-to-peer learning of best practices within a school district.
Heidi Alves, Flagler Schools' teaching and learning specialist for science, led Flagler's Purposeful Learning Event at Buddy Taylor Middle School's media center.
Over 20 elementary and middle school teachers in the district were engaged in five lessons and took home $100 worth of teacher kits to implement those lessons in their classrooms.
Facilitators for the event were Alves, Allison Cencebaugh, Jamie Lambert, Marissa Blandeburgo, Tracy Jones, Katherine Acosta, Linda Schultz, Deawndra Huffman and Natalie Sonzogni-Muldoon.
