A two-year Teacher Enhancement Program for K-12 teachers from West Virginia and surrounding states. Sponsored in part by the National Science Foundation, RARE CATS is designed to provide its participants with:

  • a deeper understanding of the nature of science
  • astronomy content knowledge
  • training in the use of astronomy data processing software
[retbut] Research Experience for Teachers is an NSF sponsored program similar to the Research Experience for Undergraduates program. The RET program gives K-12 teachers research experience by providing "summer jobs" working alongside an astronomer or engineer. NRAO sites in Socorro, NM and Green Bank, WV have applied to the RET program for summer of 2001.
