Preparing for the Future
Why STEM?
STEM, an acronym that stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math is a curriculum that serves to educate students through these core disciplines, training and equipping them for future careers within each of these fields. As society continues to become technologically advanced, there are growing needs and opportunities to develop students who will be able to contribute at a high level.

I am most proud of the kids that are going through the program. I get much joy seeing their faces, their excitement about the program and what they are learning. Exposing them to opportunities. In some cases they may think those opportunities are beyond their reach. -Board Chair, 21st Century STEM Foundation
