Resources
We ask students to bring the following to each session:
- A fully charged laptop
- Charger
Our STEM program welcomes students from grades 1-6, offering a unique learning experience.
We group students into three collaborative cohorts:
- Grades 1-2,
- Grades 3-4,
- Grades 5-6.
This approach allows for peer-to-peer learning, with younger students gaining inspiration from their older peers, while older students deepen their understanding by mentoring others.
To ensure a quality learning experience, each class requires a minimum number of students to be enrolled. If this minimum is not met, we may need to condense classes or adjust schedules accordingly. We appreciate your understanding and support as we strive to provide the best educational opportunities for all participants.
Please encourage your friends to join, as more students mean more engaging and dynamic classes!
We are excited to provide scholarships for our program on a limited, rolling basis. This ensures that we can support as many students as possible while maintaining the quality of our program. We encourage interested applicants to apply early to secure their opportunity for financial assistance!
The scholarship application can be found here.
