ReMA recognized with Catapult Best of STEM Freebie Award

Catapult X and the Teich Group have recognized the Recycling Education Curriculum from the Recycled Materials Association (ReMA), Washington, created in partnership with JASON Learning. The curriculum, which provides science, technology, engineering and mathematics-, or STEM-, based education plans that demonstrate the science behind recycling, was awarded the Best of STEM Freebies for Environmental Science from the “Educators Pick Best of STEM 2025 Awards.”

The Educators Pick Best of STEM Awards was established in partnership with MCH Strategic Data, the National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) and the National Association of Biology Teachers (NABT) in 2020 to establish innovative products, technologies and services that are altering the world of STEM education.

The awards require a two-part evaluation process conducted by expert STEM educators. More than 260,000 educators are given the opportunity to evaluate the finalists. ReMA and JASON Learning have received this commendation from educators who see the importance of bringing resources about recycling and the recycled materials industry to schools.

“Since 2014, ReMA and JASON Learning have partnered to help students and educators understand the importance of recycling and the recycled materials industry, as well as learn key STEM topics related to recycling,” ReMA President Robin Wiener says. “I am proud that our collection has earned the BEST of STEM Freebies award, and I hope educators across America continue to utilize the curriculum to enlighten students on the science behind recycling.”
