The National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Education (CFDA 47.076, STEM Education program) awarded $1,877,881 to the University of South Carolina on October 1, 2025, to design, develop, and implement the Building Leadership Among Science Teachers in Rural Regions (BLAST) Leadership Academy through July 31, 2029. This Noyce Track 3 project serves 28 K-8 master teacher fellows in high-need school districts across South Carolina by delivering a comprehensive five-year professional development and coaching program. Key deliverables include a leadership simulation, summer institutes, online modules tailored to individualized learning needs, classroom coaching, and professional learning and leadership plans developed in collaboration with school principals. Participants also attend and present at National Science Teacher Association conferences and engage in mentoring and professional development leadership within their respective schools and districts. Under a sub-award agreement with Clemson University (awarded March 31, 2026), Clemson Apparel Research Division provides operational and instructional support including design and facilitation of three four-day summer institutes with monthly follow-up meetings, online module administration, mentor support for BLAST fellows, assistance with classroom practice data collection, project expenditure coordination, and graduate assistant management. The project is grounded in situated learning theory and the science teacher leader framework, with research objectives focused on understanding how systemic change occurs through teacher leaders in high-need school systems, the role of geographic location in supporting or hindering teacher leadership, and identifying key leverage points for sustainable improvement.Federal Grant Award Summary
