Propelling students into STEM

There is no place more exciting than right here. Where else can learners explore the world of technology, create animated movies and work side by side with established women in their community?

The Summit is an immersive experience for any 5th – 12th grade girls interested in science, technology, engineering, math, or all of the above. This opportunity offers a fun and challenging way for students to explore their interests alongside peers, gain practical experience and get inspired for the future.
