Scientific Research & Education Network 
SciREN is non-profit organization that aims to foster the science literacy of today’s youth. Through this network, researchers and educators gather to develop ready-made K-12 STEM lesson plans based on cutting-edge research. 
As part of the SciREN Leadership Team in Georgia, I help connect researchers and educators to organize classroom visits and collaborate on STEM enrichment programs tailored to Georgia Educational Standards.

For free K-12 lesson plans, please visit the SciREN Lesson Plan Portal!
