K-12 was making progress in Science Ed through Grants from the National Science Foundation. Through a well thought out. long range plan they aimed to increase Science scores via funding for materials and staff development. They knew deficits couldn't be improved overnight and were giving grantees all across the states time to work up. These demonstration sites would then inform plans to bring the whole nation up to speed and those who had made the improvements would offer their skills in on-going staff development with those who hadn't received training.

Results were promising, but Science funds were cut under Bush.
