The Science Education Council of Ohio (SECO) is a collaborative community that believes everyone deserves the benefit of a strong science education in order to engage with an ever-changing world.
The Science Education Council of Ohio announces the opening of the nomination process for our annual science awards. Every year SECO honors outstanding teachers, administrators and friends of science education. These awards will be given out during our annual Symposium January 28-29, 2019 in Columbus. There are seven different award categories. Several of the awards cover expenses to attend the symposium for pre-service and current teachers. There is also one award for teachers to pursue a project in their classroom. Nominate someone you know or nominate yourself. Award descriptions and nomination forms can be found online at https://scienceeducationofohio1.wildapricot.org/ Deadline for nominations is November 19, 2018. Questions can be directed to thrivewithseco@gmail.com. Revised Science Standards are available on ODE site!!!
