MOVE MINNESOTA FORWARD ON STEM EDUCATION 

Minnesota ranks 50th in Code.org’s state ranking of computer science education. Join SciMathMN in positively impacting our “last in nation” status.

Moving Minnesota forward on STEM education means developing a comprehensive plan for computer science education; recruiting, supporting, and retaining STEM teachers; supporting career and technical education opportunities; and providing support for new science and math academic standards implementation.
