Maddy summaryThis bill creates a new grant program called "Increasing Engagement in STEM" to provide funding to North Carolina public schools for experiential science, technology, engineering, and math education. The program specifically targets sixth, seventh, and eighth-grade students and allows schools to use the money for teacher stipends, hiring third-party vendors, and hosting competitions. A total of $1 million is allocated to fund up to 20 school districts, with selection criteria designed to ensure geographic and population diversity across different school sizes. Schools must submit detailed plans outlining how they will use the funds and how they intend to sustain the programs after the grant period ends. The bill also requires the state superintendent to submit initial and final reports to a legislative committee detailing application results, student participation data, and performance outcomes.
