Idaho tech initiative draws in students – Early signs show increasing interest among schoolchildren in science and engineering

The rising interest is one example of the early fruits born from the state’s increased focus on exposing educators and students from kindergarten through college to science, technology, engineering and math instruction, state education officials say.

Idaho began emphasizing programs to develop more student interest in science, technology, engineering and math beginning two years ago. Getting more students into those fields is one way Idaho business leaders hope to meet the need for more qualified Idaho graduates for high-paying jobs in high-technology fields.
