HUNTINGTON -- The June Harless Center for Rural Educational Research and Development received a $200,000 donation Friday from Frontier Communications to help advance a virtual S.T.E.M. Academy.

S.T.E.M., which stands for science, technology, engineering and math, is the main focus of the June Harless Center. Director Stan Maynard said the money will help address key problems facing West Virginia in providing virtual learning communities to teachers and students and also emphasize S.T.E.M. fields from Pre-K through 12th grade.

"We want to set a foundation for a virtual S.T.E.M. Academy," said Maynard, who helped incorporate science, technology, engineering and math into the Early Education Center for 3- and 4-year-olds in Corbly Hall.
