Louisiana State University's (LSU) will offer professional development to science teachers in a new school in East Baton Rouge Parish School System (EBRPSS). EBRPSS is developing a “focus choice” grades 6-12 school that is analogous to the LSU College of the Coast and Environment (CC&E). The goal is to develop a pre-college curriculum that will articulate with CC&E’s interdisciplinary Coastal Environmental Science B.S. Program, which is heavily underpinned with rigorous STEM courses. CC&E, in partnership with LSU’s College of Human Sciences and Education, will help develop curriculum focused on hands-on, place-based learning and provide EBRPSS teachers with professional development opportunities that enable them to master the material that they will teach.The EBRPSS is fast-tracking this new environmental school and aims to begin with a first cohort of sixth grade students in the fall 2022 semester. LSU faculty will develop a two-week Summer Institute Workshop focusing on curriculum development and teacher professional development, as well as assistance leading up to the first day of classes in August. The new school is located 2.2 miles from the CC&E campus, and a neighboring school is 93% minority students. The new public school will educate a drastically underserved population, offer students a strong science foundation, and engage them in local environmental and geoscience topics. The overall aim of this “School of Environmental Studies and Coastal Studies” is to educate diverse cohorts of students who can matriculate directly to LSU, particularly in the College of the Coast and Environment’s Coastal Environmental Science B.S. degree, or in other LSU programs with an environmental focus.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

路易斯安那州立大学（LSU）将为东巴吞鲁日教区学校（EBRPSS）的一所新学校的科学教师提供专业发展。 EBRPS正在开发一所“焦点选择” 6至12年级的学校，类似于LSU海岸和环境学院（CC＆E）。目的是开发一项预科课程，该课程将与CC＆E的跨学科沿海环境科学B.S.计划，由严格的STEM课程为大力支撑。 CC＆E与LSU的人类科学与教育学院合作，将有助于开发专注于动手，基于地点的学习的课程，并为EBRPS教师提供专业发展的机会，使他们能够掌握他们将要教的材料。EBRPSS是EBRPS的新型环境学校，旨在从六年级的六年级学生开始，并旨在从20222222222岁的学生开始。路易斯安那州立大学的教职员工将开展为期两周的夏季研究所研讨会，专注于课程发展和教师专业发展，并在8月上课的第一天之前提供帮助。这所新学校距离CC＆E校园2.2英里，邻近学校是93％的少数民族学生。新的公立学校将教育一个非常乏味的人口，为学生提供强大的科学基金会，并参与当地的环境和地球科学主题。这种“环境研究和沿海研究学院”的总体目的是教育一群可以直接矩阵的学生，特别是在沿海和环境的沿海环境科学学院B.S.该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并在其他LSU计划中进行了学位，并通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响标准来诚实地认为NSF的法定任务。
