Celebrating educators in and around the National Capital Region

AFOSR Teacher Feature collection

Through professional learning programs such as the STEM Teacher Leadership Academy and the ACCESS Lending Library Program, the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) connects basic science research portfolios with K-12 STEM educators throughout the National Capital Region. The talented educational leaders who take part in these programs engage with challenging technical content and have brought this exciting work to life for thousands of students since 2023.

The AFOSR STEM Team recognizes educators through our Teacher Feature Program, which highlights the accomplishments of our outstanding cohort members. You can find our most recent Teacher Feature on our Educator Resources page and you can see all of our past features below.
