MƒA teachers, both past and present, have been celebrated as extraordinary STEM teachers in New York City public high schools through the Sloan Award over the years. To qualify, teachers must demonstrate excellence in teaching mathematics or science in city high schools for at least five years.
The winners were chosen by a panel of scientists, mathematicians, and educators, and they received a $5,000 award as well as $2,500 for their schools’ science or math departments. The winners were honored at an awards ceremony on December 11.
