STEM Equity ProgramThe STEM Equity Program promotes science, technology, engineering, and mathematics careers. The program originated in 2010, in partnership with South Central College and South Central Services Cooperative, and funded through a Federal Perkins Grant.
We believe it is important to encourage girls (and boys) to pursue a career in STEM. With the help of our partners, GMDC offers a STEM Equity Program which focuses on middle school and high school female (and male) students to explore their potential futures in STEM fields. In our classroom workshops, we discuss gender stereotypes, help students discover how fun STEM is, and demonstrate how STEM contributes significantly to the society. |

Great presentation! Thank you! The children helped me with the comments. They said he was kind, funny, fluent and they really enjoyed him. Mohamed did a great job engaging with students. He was also very ‘easy’ to have in the classroom. Great job. He was very patient with the students with all their questions and comments."

It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity, there is beauty, and there is strength.
