Texas EcosySTEM
Welcome to the Education Service Center Region 11 Texas EcosySTEM project, powered by the Texas Education Agency.
Our mission is to educate, promote, and prepare our students, parents, and educators with equitable STEM opportunities and STEM skill-sets necessary to be future-ready. We will accomplish this by providing quality solutions that build the capacity in STEM learning opportunities.
Learning Ecosystems provide the architecture for cross-sector learning, offering all young people access to STEM-rich learning environments so they can develop important skills and engagement in science, technology, engineering, and math throughout Pre-K-20. Strong STEM Learning Ecosystems feature dynamic collaborations among schools, out-of-school time programs, STEM expert institutions (such as museums, science centers, institutions of higher education and STEM professional associations), the private sector, community-based organizations, youth, and families.
Professional Development Opportunities
