ST. LOUIS — Nationwide, a movement is underway to improve the math and science aptitude of today’s students. For the second year in a row, the Monsanto Fund is gearing-up to invest $2.3 million to strengthen math and science education in rural communities through America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education.
Now until April 15, 2013, farmers can nominate their favorite, local public school district. Administrators of nominated school districts can then submit grant applications through April 30, 2013, to enhance their math and/or science programs.
“We believe bright futures start in the classroom,” said Deborah Patterson, Monsanto. . .
