TRAVELING THE EXTRA MILE FOR GEORGIA STEM SCHOLAR AWARDEES

GYSTC takes great pride in our STEM Scholars – past, present and future! The annual selections for this special group showcase the dedication, innovation and excellence in classroom teaching these creative educators perform daily. Unfortunately, for the second year, COVID-19 has forced the postponement of the joyous celebrations which see the winners travel to Atlanta for a festive ceremony in which the coveted STEM Scholar awards are presented. But the GYSTC board and staff remain undaunted in our commitment to publicly congratulate the winners! To that end, GYSTC Board Chair Don Barbour, GYSTC Executive Director Betsy Green, and GYSTC Director of Strategic Initiatives Lynn Larsen  have been traveling around the state to present the awards individually to each of the 26 winners for the 2020 school year and the 23 winners for 2021. Below are a few captioned photos of the individual awards presented to recipients thus far. Watch this space for more awards photos as presentations occur - and congratulations again to all our talented teachers!
