The Pioneer Valley, formed by the Connecticut River, is home to the urban centers of Springfield and Holyoke and rural, former manufacturing towns such as Greenfield and Orange. The school communities in these cities and towns are the primary educational settings of the S2TLC project. Here the Science and Mathematics Master Teaching Fellows (MTFs) interact daily with middle and high school students, and these are the sites where MTFs mentored Teaching Fellows during 2012-13. Students in the partner districts are representative of diverse ethnic, language, and economic backgrounds.
