The program has four general goals:
SMS works with 14 M-DCPS teachers, seven middle school teachers from three middle schools and seven high school teachers from three high schools. Each middle school is a feeder for one of the high schools. Each academic year, we pair one UM undergraduates with each teacher. The undergraduates function as “resident scientists”, spending six hours per week in the classroom with the teachers and their students. They receive civic engagement credit from UM for the program. Six graduate students mentor the undergraduates at each school.
