A new milestone worth celebrating! 🎉

The STEM Connection has officially served more than 10,000 participants so far this year! Every number represents a young learner who had the opportunity to explore, discover, and grow through hands-on STEM experiences.

Thank you to our educators, partners, volunteers, donors, and supporters for helping continue expanding access to meaningful STEM learning.

Growing future leaders takes a community.

The STEM Future Leaders program creates meaningful opportunities for middle school students, high school leaders, and young adult interns to explore STEM, build confidence, develop leadership skills, and gain real-world experience.

Guess who's happiest to see the buses rolling in?

Patches, of course.

"The school groups are back, and I could not be happier about it. August was very quiet around here. Fall field trips are the best thing after a long summer."

The trails are busy again, the farm is full of excitement, and another season of outdoor STEM learning is officially underway. Welcome back, students and educators! 🍁

Because of your support, curiosity grew all summer long.

This season's impact goes far beyond the numbers. Each statistic represents students who experienced the joy of hands-on STEM learning, educators who inspired discovery, and a community committed to creating opportunities for every learner.

Thank you for helping make it all possible.
