Academy of Engineering (AOE)
The National Academy Foundation, Project Lead The Way and the National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering
A partnership to create small learning communities in high schools focused on Science/Technology/Engineering/Math (STEM). The goals are:
Recruit and encourage more high school students to investigate careers in engineering, science and technology
Increase the participation of women and underrepresented minorities in the study of engineering
High school graduates ready for postsecondary education and prepared to succeed and graduate with a degree in the field
12
AOE Involvement
National Academy Foundation (NAF): unique capabilities and documented success in developing specialized career academies in Finance, IT, Travel and Tourism
Project Lead The Way (PLTW): Provides the curriculum development for core pre-engineering studies, teacher PLTW certification and classroom requirements
National Action Council for Minorities in Engineering (NACME): reinforcing and enhancing the educational experience in the classroom by providing support to the local community, students and parents – using a collaboration model
13
AOE GuidelinesThe guidelines for this new academy include: Small, 400 student four-year high school Either stand-alone or small learning community in an urban school Must have a separate leader and independent, dedicated staff across all
disciplines and approval by the school district Degree of autonomy negotiated with school district and significant budget
authority AOE will not be a set of drop-in courses AOE will not be for the top students of a high school or community, but must
be open to all students of the school Agreed policy for admission to program (Student expresses interest in theme
and enrolling in the school) Every student graduates ready for success at a four-year institution STEM theme: The academy will center its course curriculum on science,
technology, engineering and math
