A new Web site at the University of Minnesota will help students to discover opportunities to spark their interests, families to find summer camps and exciting places to visit on University of Minnesota campuses, and preK-12 educators and administrators to find innovative classroom resources and high quality professional development.

The site, K12@U, goes public today at www.k12.umn.edu . It is designed to offer easy access to more than 180 activities, courses, and programs at the University that are available to the K-12 community—a one-stop shop for students, parents, educators, and others interested in the U’s support for preK-12 education across Minnesota.

Visitors will find a site that allows them to designate their specific interests as a starting point to search the database of an enormous smorgasbord of offerings. Everything from creative programs to help teachers expand their skills and find new resources, to University music, science, art and just plain fun classes and camps for children can be found.

The Web site was created and will be managed by the College Readiness Consortium, part of the University’s Office of the Senior Vice President of System Academic Administration. The consortium’s executive director is Kent Pekel.
