"As a company with a long history of helping to strengthen U.S. science education, Bayer is acutely aware that two of the highest need K-12 teaching areas are in math and science. We must continue to find ways to attract and retain the best and brightest math and science teachers if we expect our students to compete with their global peers," said Greg Babe, President and CEO of Bayer Corporation, and Chairman and President of the Bayer USA Foundation.
