(Wilmington, DE) – In his weekly message, Governor Markell highlights education efforts in Delaware focused on ensuring students are motivated to learn by making their studies relevant to their future. “This year our STEM Council is bringing new, hands-on science activities into our middle and high schools, and our students will be exposed to career paths in our fastest-growing industries by working directly with professionals in science, technology, engineering, and math,” said Governor Markell. “By committing to make school relevant and engaging for our students, and asking our students to work hard and push themselves, we’ll have a successful school year and we’ll keep Delaware moving forward.”
