Rose Leitner is a junior majoring in Early Childhood Education with a minor in Integrated STEM. She was driven to begin this project when she joined the honors program in her first year. She knew off the bat that she wanted to focus on mathematics and the role of parents in early childhood education. She has always been intrigued by mathematics and parents' beliefs and ideas about math. She was excited to survey the parents of children that she knew to examine if they were as supportive of mathematics as she was or if they were not concerned at all with their children’s math. She wanted to explore if there were differences in the mindsets of parents based on whether they had boys or girls. She answered these questions successfully through her research. Her plan when she graduates is to get a job in an elementary school and pursue her master's and doctorate in Education.
