Savannah River Mission Completion (SRMC), the liquid waste contractor at the Savannah River Site (SRS), has donated $15,000 to Lamar-Milledge Elementary School in Richmond County, Georgia, to enhance its science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) curriculum.
SRMC President and Program Manager Dr. Dave Olson presented the donation to Lamar-Milledge Elementary School Principal Eric Lewis, highlighting SRMC’s commitment to early education and long-term workforce development.
“This donation to Lamar-Milledge Elementary School is an investment in our future,” Olson said. “SRMC strives to reach students in elementary school because the foundation to success starts early, and we want to inspire these students at an early age by providing resources to spark an interest in STEM education.”
The funds will help the school expand classroom STEM resources and align with Richmond County’s broader STE(A)M Initiative, which integrates the arts alongside traditional STEM subjects.
“Our mission is to create an environment that ensures every student reaches a high level of academic achievement,” Lewis said. “This donation is going directly to the students who need it most and allows the school to delve into the county’s science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STE(A)M) Initiative.”
SRMC, comprised of parent company BWX Technologies, Inc. and partners Amentum and Fluor, is responsible for accelerating the safe cleanup of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Savannah River Site through nuclear operations and integrated mission execution.
