Description
The Gravely and Paige Grants for STEM Teachers are designed to enhance STEM education in U.S. elementary and middle schools by providing funding for innovative classroom programs and activities. Offered by the AFCEA Educational Foundation, these grants support academic initiatives such as robotics clubs, cyber clubs, and other STEM-related projects, both inside and outside the classroom. The program is a partnership between AFCEA chapters and the foundation, honoring Vice Adm. Samuel L. Gravely, Jr. and Lt. Gen. Emmett Paige Jr., both champions of STEM education. The primary goal is to offset costs for tools, activities, and resources that foster engaging STEM learning experiences.
