Hi everyone:
We are receiving applications (at a slow rate though) and would like to see if
you can forward the attached message/flyer to all your contacts. If we all make
an extra effort, we can get good enrollment this year. We do have some funds to
support a few students if they need support. The Greek and Turkish applications
are expected soon. We also may have a couple of students from Jordan this year.
Please take a moment to connect with your high school teacher contacts and
others - including your relatives and friends who have kids eligible to
participate.

Hi Donna:
Thanks for all the quick updates and responses to the ongoing conversation
about the YSCOA and the APP. It is developing very nicely. I am hoping that I
would be able to participate in the upcoming video conference at least for the
first part. At noon, I have to go to another meeting, but most of the
discussion should be over by that time.
I wanted to know if somehow you could bring the attached information to the
attention of our members and send it to your contacts (high school teachers) in
Virginia. If you send it to the members of our Listserve, I would request that
the members can spread the word out to their contacts also and if possible put
it on their web sites. This is a tremendous opportunity for high school
students to participate in this program; and also complements our efforts in
expanding our role in STEM education at the high school level.
Project SMART is a well-established program that has recently been expanded to
national and international participation. During the last two years, we have
had students from NH to Alaska and also from Greece, Turkey and India. The
participant profile includes a highly divergent group - rural and urban, about
50% females, about one third international, about one third under-represented
and minority groups, etc.
Please let me know if you help spread the word in whatever way you can.
Thank you
Subhash

Hello All -
I am happy to have a full draft of the APP for your review. I incorporated all
of the feedback that I received. There are only a few new parts:

attached as a spreadsheet to this email -- I want to make sure my FY12 numbers
are correct
* Renie - see 2 comments on pg 39 (change from Ashley) - are you ok
with this?
* J.P. - see 1 comment on pg 39 (change from Ashley) - are you ok with
