NCESD wins grant
The North Central Educational Service District recently announced that the NCESD Math / Science Team was one of 10 successful recipients of a three-year $750,000 Math / Science Partnership Grant. NCESD assistant superintendent Cindy Duncan stated that the “grant provides an excellent opportunity for the North Central Educational Service District to provide long-term professional development opportunities (with little or no cost to the school districts) for math and science educators within our district.”
