Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, a high school science teacher, failed to establish that his proposed endeavor was of national importance. Although the AAO found his work had substantial merit and that he was well-positioned to advance it, it concluded that his impact did not extend beyond his local school or district to the broader field of education, thus failing the first prong of the Dhanasar framework.
