Summary:

Chevron has supported the implementation of Project Lead the Way Engineering at Mt.

Clayton Valley High School would like to request $23,000 for the addition of robotics as well as additional materials and equipment for the existing PLTW. Mt. Diablo High School would like to request $20,000 for the addition of robotics as well as additional materials and equipment for the existing PLTW courses.
Riverview Middle School has also been invited by Chevron to apply for funding support to implement the Project Lead the Way Gateway to Technology program, to provide middle school students with hands on experience with Design and Modeling, Energy & Environment, and Automation & Robotics. Riverview Middle School will work closely with Mt. Diablo High School’s ACME/PLTW program, to ensure students have the opportunity of a seamless transition to Mt. Diablo High School. Riverview Middle School is requesting $23,639, which will enable them to offer the three named modules in 2011-2012 school year, serving approximately 100 students.
