STEM Pilot Program; require SDE to create in certain school districts for students in Grades 4-8.
HB 366 requires Mississippi's State Department of Education to create a STEM pilot program in school districts across the Delta region and in Jasper, Clarke, and Jones Counties for students in grades 4-8 who score highest on statewide math assessments. The program includes activities like career guest speakers, field trips to local STEM employers and colleges, and information on scholarships to inspire students toward STEM fields. Participating schools may pay teachers an annual salary supplement to lead the program, and districts must submit annual reports on program activities to the State Department of Education.
