    All invoicing of Georgia Tech funds for stipends for STEP work conducted outside the school day will be performed by one of the two coordinators listed above.
    Team Goals
  • Improve student achievement of the required GHSGT in science. Improve student attitudes about science in general by relating the importance of scientific achievement. Introduce career opportunities that require a science background. Assist students in becoming more proficient in scientific thinking. Assist teachers in implementing new hands-on activities that will correlate with current curriculum.
  • Primary Population
    Ms. Deale's Physical Science classes are prmarily 9th graders. The project success classes are made up of those students who have a hard time with science, they will need assistance on all levels of endeavor. The advanced level classes need challenging activities to keep them interested.
