The National Math and Science Initiative is a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming math and science education in today’s classrooms with proven, effective programs that can be replicated nationwide. NMSI was launched in 2007 with inaugural support form ExxonMobil, the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

 

The National Math and Science Initiative has given Junction City High School a budget of $546,140.00 to be used over the next three years. NMSI’s goal is to increase enrollment in AP courses and increase AP test scores of a three or higher. To increase enrollment, it targets students who are underrepresented in ethnicity, military/mobile, low SES & AVID students who have potential to take more advanced courses to prepare for college.

 

Junction City High School as well as a couple of other high schools will help implement this program in Kansas.
