We are pleased to announce the winners of our 2024 LRIG-New England Marsha Paul Education Grants!  The grants of up to $2,500 were awarded to those STEM based educators teaching in 8th grade through high school throughout New England that proposed the best project-based activities in laboratory education settings.  We had another strong group of applicants this year from which to select and we look forward to each winner presenting their progress at an upcoming LRIG-NE meeting.   The winner of this year’s grants are:
