The Griffin Museum of Science and Industry’s Science Leadership Initiative addresses the critical issue of student achievement and exposure to STEM by supporting science education on a whole-school level. This initiative seeks to:

• Identify the components that lead to an effective science education.
• Support schools on a path toward improvement.
• Promote a culture of shared leadership between teachers, administrators and Griffin MSI.
• Recognize those that succeed as models for other schools.

Griffin MSI's Science Leadership School Partners Program provides a mechanism for whole-school change in science teaching and learning. This innovative program is grounded in current research in science education and designed to support K-8 schools as they do the work of science education reform.
