Sustaining Your NMSI College Readiness Program in Partnership with AdvanceKentucky
| 1 / 8 | 12% |
PURPOSE This application is a first step to establish an affiliation with the National Math and Science Initiative (NMSI) through the College Readiness Program (CRP) Sustainment Network (SN) by requesting funds to continue selected components of NMSI’s College Readiness Program, which you have been implementing in partnership with AdvanceKentucky. The goal is to customize a sustainment package based on the school’s priority needs and funding capabilities in order to help sustain ongoing success in student participation and performance and teacher capacity in Advanced Placement (AP) math, science and English (MSE) courses. As a member of the SN, schools can access selected AdvanceKentucky services and components of the CRP to achieve this purpose. Acceptance into the Sustainment Network will allow schools access to NMSI online content resources.
