Mission Statement
Our mission is to advance STEM education to ensure all students, especially those furthest from opportunity, thrive and reach their highest potential as problem solvers and lifelong learners who pursue their passions and tackle the world's toughest challenges.
About This Cause
NMSI’s mission is to improve student performance in the critical subjects of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). NMSI’s programs transform teaching, transform schools, and are transforming education in the United States. American students are falling behind in the essential subjects of math and science, putting our position in the global economy at risk. To be truly successful, our country must ensure that all students, no matter what their financial circumstances, race, or gender, have access to careers in the promising fields of science, technology, and engineering. We don’t reinvent wheels; we find the best ones – and roll. That is, we find ideas and programs with proven effectiveness and quantifiable results and scale them up nationwide. We monitor results for effectiveness and require that milestones be reached every step of the way. Educators value our comprehensive, evidence-based approach because it delivers dramatic and sustainable results and fundamentally changes education cultures. NMSI transforms STEM education by focusing on the most critical element in education – teaching. NMSI’s UTeach Expansion Program significantly improves the quantity and quality of new math and science teachers. NMSI’s Laying the Foundation Program is strengthening the existing teaching corps through professional training resources aligned with Common Core State Standards. NMSI’s College Readiness Program is raising the academic bar in public schools by demonstrating that more students, especially underrepresented groups, can master rigorous AP coursework, especially in math and science. NMSI’s focus on military families provides consistent, high-level math and science education to schools serving military bases through our rigorous College Readiness Program.
