Creates a National STEM Week to boost science and tech learning for all students.
This bill would create a National STEM Week each year. Its purpose is to encourage students, families, and schools to get more involved in science, technology, engineering, and math. It aims to highlight career paths and build partnerships between schools and businesses. The goal is to improve STEM education for all students, especially those in rural, urban, and underserved areas.
Currently, Section 101 of the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010 does not include provisions for a National STEM Week or related reporting. If this bill passes, it would amend that law to designate a National STEM Week each year for 5 years. A government committee would then encourage schools, families, and businesses to participate in activities aimed at boosting STEM education and career interest nationwide.
