Nissan Gives Fiscal Backing to Innovative Education Program

Innovation in the classroom means an innovative spirit in the leaders of tomorrow. Nissan knows this statement to be true. That's why the automaker has signed on to sponsor SAE International's A World In Motion program. After all, it does take innovative minds to create each new Nissan that rests on our lot at Garland Nissan, 2507 Fort Campbell Blvd Hopkinsville, KY 42240.

In case you're unfamiliar, A World in Motion (AWIM) strives to breathe life into the classroom through educating K-12 students on the topics of science, technology, engineering, and math. Essentially, AWIM helps to develop the skills needed to thrive in the modern world. More specifically, the program is held to national standards and introduces growing minds to the laws of physics, motion, flight, and electronics in an age-appropriate, engaging manner.

Carla Bailo, Senior Vice President of Research & Development for Nissan, echoes this saying, "We live in a technology-based world, so giving children the tools they need to help them understand science and math concepts is vitally important. These innovative materials may help launch a new generation of engineers, scientists and problem solvers."1

We at Garland Nissan couldn't be more excited about this new Nissan initiative. If it weren't for community-oriented companies like Nissan, deserving programs such as A World in Motion wouldn't receive the fund necessary to help shape the leaders of tomorrow.
