Southington<br />

Science and<br />

Mathematics<br />

Initiative Fund<br />

With America steadily<br />

losing ground to the rest<br />

<strong>of</strong> the world in the fields<br />

<strong>of</strong> science and math,<br />

many states are devising<br />

new strategies to better<br />

equip our students to<br />

compete. But at the local<br />

level, new educational initiatives are <strong>of</strong>ten subject to the<br />

restraints <strong>of</strong> school budgets.<br />

Thanks to a group <strong>of</strong> motivated parents, the Southington<br />

Science and Mathematics Initiative (SSMI) is working with<br />

Southington’s public schools to enrich, enlighten and<br />

engage Southington students.<br />

“SSMI aims to encourage the next generation <strong>of</strong> scientists,<br />

mathematicians and engineers,” says Jill Notar-Francesco,<br />

Parent Representative. “Providing a way for individuals,<br />

companies and others to make tax-deductible contributions<br />

to help the school district just makes sense.”<br />

In <strong>2006</strong>, the <strong>Community</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> helped these visionary<br />

parents set up a donor advised fund that <strong>of</strong>fers expert<br />

management and growth potential. A committee designated<br />

by the Initiative directly participates in an annual grantawarding<br />

process. In 2007, more than 140 Southington<br />

students are being sent to CAMPY on Campus, a one-day<br />

program that fuels students' mathematical and analytical<br />

imaginations.<br />
