OUR STORY

The Learner FIRST Center for Science & Agriculture was developed to support educators in their implementation of high quality and high impact science and agriculture instruction in order to meet the needs of today’s learners.  Science and Agriculture instruction has evolved to requiring students to collaborate with each other, think about sustainability, construct viable arguments, and solve problems with real-world solutions. Our entire team of science and agriculture consultants are currently in roles just like yours and understand the challenges schools face today in educating our learners.  We will work alongside you and your team to create a strong foundation of science and agriculture to ensure that all students are learning at high levels.

MISSION

The Learner FIRST Center for Science & Agriculture provides training, coaching, resources and support to leaders and teachers so that science & agriculture instruction is systemically aligned and intentionally designed in order to improve student learning for ALL students.

VISION

The Learner FIRST Center for Science & Agriculture will develop teachers and leaders to have confidence in teaching science and agriculture in ways that bring science back to being an essential content area in each and every school.
