Precollege Update:
The October Roundtable
In an effort to increase the pool of middle and high school students that are prepared to successfully undertake the rigors of college-level math and science courses, NACME has begun to aggressively lay the foundation for a precollege strategy. The ultimate goal is to broaden the pipeline for those wishing to consider engineering as a university major and potential career choice.
As a first step, NACME convened a cadre of national experts in the field of precollege education at an October Precollege Roundtable. The purpose of the Roundtable was to explore best-practices, discuss NACME's precollege record to date, historical initiatives, emerging programmatic options, and viable opportunities for collaborative efforts. The Roundtable, held in White Plains, New York, comprised key stakeholders from the government, corporate, education and institutional sectors. Those present at the day-long event engaged in a spirited exchange of innovative ideas for advancing the collective goal of decreasing the higher-learning readiness gap for middle school and high school students of color.
