He is requesting your help... click the link below.

https://www.donorschoose.org/project/building-a-stem-ulating-career-lab/9683655/?utm_source=dc&utm_medium=mobilesharetray&utm_campaign=project&utm_term=teacher_8306085&rf=mobilesharetray-dc-2025-09-project-teacher_8306085&challengeid=21885636

My Project
I have recently started a College and Career Ready STEM lab in my middle school. The goal of this lab is to give my middle schoolers a hands-on curriculum that will help them learn about different STEM careers before they go to high school. Hopefully, this will help more students have a better understanding of what career fields interest them, and they can begin to tailor their High School education to better their chances of getting into trade schools, 2-year, and 4-year college programs.

We’re building curiosity, confidence, and career dreams 💭💙 Bulldog Pride strong! 🐾💪
