Grants to this Grantee
for support of an i3 grant to establish two New Tech High schools in South Carolina
KnowledgeWorks received an Investing in Innovation grant from the Department of Education to develop two STEM-focused New Tech High schools in two poverty-stricken school districts in South Carolina. KnowledgeWorks and New Tech will partner with the Riley Institute at Furman University, Evaluation Center at University of Georgia and the two school districts - Colleton County and Clarendon 1 - to improve achievement and high school graduation rates. This grant is to provide matching support to the $3.4M project.
