Project Lead The Way<\/a> (PLTW) is the leading provider of rigorous and innovative Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) education curricular programs used in middle and high schools across the U.S.\u00a0STEM education is at the heart of today\u2019s high-tech, high-skill global economy. For America to remain economically competitive, our next generation of leaders \u2014 the students of today \u2014 must develop the critical-reasoning and problem-solving skills that will help make them the most productive in the world.\u00a0The PLTW curriculum is founded in the fundamental problem-solving and critical-thinking skills taught in traditional career and technical education (CTE), but at the same time integrates national academic and technical learning standards and STEM principles, creating what U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan calls one of the \u201cgreat models of the new CTE succeeding all across the country.\u201d PLTW was recently cited by the Harvard Graduate School of Education as a \u201cmodel for 21st century career and technical education.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) PBIS\u00a0is a joint effort between Milwaukee Public Schools\u00a0Office of Family Services and the Milwaukee Teachers\u2019 Education Association to effectively reduce classroom disruptions and student suspensions through a school-wide systematic tiered-intervention approach.
