I find out about NASA events by being registered with NEON...Nasa Educators Online Network. I get weekly updates about student and teacher contests, PD opportunities, and other activities.
If you are reading this blog and want more of a specific topic, please email me with your request. I am writing this blog to share relevant STEM news with families in my community.

Most teachers would agreee that parent attitudes directly affect student achievement in class. So let's get to it!
