WEST GREENWICH – Amgen is inviting local teachers to submit applications for the 17th annual Amgen Award for Science Teaching Excellence.
The awards program, which covers regions where Amgen operates, recognizes extraordinary science teachers at the K-12 level who influence their students through science instruction.
In 2008, four Rhode Island teachers will receive an unrestricted cash award of $5,000 and their schools will receive a restricted $5,000 grant to expand its science programs.
Since the program’s inception in 1992, Amgen has awarded more than $1.7 million to educators who have made exceptional science-teaching contributions.
Applicants are also required to submit an innovative lesson plan that they have incorporated into their classroom and can be shared with other teachers.
Application are available at www.amgen.com/citizenship/aaste.html. The deadline is Jan. 31. •
