MathMovesU

Raytheon’s MathMovesU initiative is
aimed at improving math and science
education among middle school-aged
students in America by inspiring them to get
excited about math. The MathMovesU
program combines student interest in exciting
careers with grant money and awards to
generate excitement in math. In the first
year of the program, Raytheon announced
$1 million in student scholarships and teacher
grants related to the MathMovesU initiative.
While MathMovesU is most certainly an
education program, it’s not based in the
classroom but on the Internet, where
students get their entertainment and
information. At MathMovesU.com, middle
school students, parents and teachers can go
online for weekly math contests, scholarship
information and curriculum materials from
MATHCOUNTS, a leading promoter of middle
school math achievement. By highlighting
“cool” careers, Raytheon hopes to make a
difference in the lives of young students,
showing them that excellence in math and
science can lead to an exciting future.
