 eCYBERMISSION Competition
 
 
 Attention Middle School Teachers:
 
  
 
 eCYBERMISSION would like to invite you to the Natick Soldier Systems
 Center on Monday, Feb. 6, 2012, from 3:30  4:30 p.m. in room D-200 for
 an information session to increase Science, Technology, Engineering and
 Mathematics (STEM) education in our community and get your students
 involved in this exceptional program. 
 
  
 
 eCYBERMISSION is a free, web-based, STEM competition for students in
 grades six through nine. Teams of three or four students find a problem
 in their community and try to solve it using the scientific
 method/inquiry or engineering design process with the help of an adult
 Team Advisor.
 
  
 
 The competition encourages and rewards students from a diverse range of
 proficiency levels, interests and backgrounds, while teaching students
 that teamwork, innovation, creativity and the real-life applications of
 STEM education can have a positive impact on their communities and
 their futures. The program awards students at the state, regional and
 national level with the opportunity to win up to $8,000 in U.S. EE
 Savings Bonds.  
 
  
 
 For any questions about the program, contact eCYBERMISSION at
 1-866-GO-CYBER (462-9237) or email volunteerprogram@ecybermission.com.  
 
  
 
 To RSVP provide your name and whether you are a US citizen to Rebecca
