At the new STEM Center, students practice a variety of STEM education skillsets, such as coding, computer-aided design and fabrication. FIRST Robotics programs from supported schools also use the STEM Center as a build and practice arena.

High-school students are able to determine if a STEM career is right for them – whether they are college-bound or entering the workforce right away – by receiving mentoring from professionals in industries such as engineering, farming and manufacturing.

In addition, the STEM Center provides a positive and safe environment in which to cultivate academic achievement and instill a sense of pride within students.

The STEM Center Currently Services Five Local Schools
