The Rocky Mountain Middle School Math Science Partnership is a Partnership comprised of three core partner Colorado school districts, Jefferson County, Brighton, and Mapleton, and the University of Colorado at Denver (CU-Denver) as the lead institution. Supporting partners include the University of Denver (DU), the Metropolitan State College of Denver (MSCD), and the Colorado State University (CSU) with affiliations to Ft. Lewis College, the Front Range Board of Cooperative Educational Services, and four school districts: Adams County 14, Englewood, Elizabeth, and Gilpin County.
Over the five years of the project, approximately 600 teachers will be involved and 26,400 students in grades 6-8 will be impacted. Invoking the motto, "15 Months to HQ" (highly qualified), this project will institutionalize the development, adaptation, and implementation of university coursework, which will boost the content and pedagogical knowledge of middle school mathematics and science teachers.
The Principal Investigator of Rocky Mountain Middle School Math Science Partnership is Doris Kimbrough.

This site was created to enhance communication and collaboration
between partners within the Rocky Mountain Middle School MSP
project as well as to inform the public of the efforts of the Math
and Science Partnership Program. While selected documents in the
library and resources sections have been made available
to the public, only logged in members of the
Rocky Mountain Middle School Math Science Partnership project can post comments,
participate or read posts in the Working Groups, or see the interactive
Calendar.
