My Project

Students need hands-on experience with molecules, the periodic table, and STEM sciences. The library provides a STEM center so all students and staff have access to the learning materials. These materials will be available for all library visitors, ensuring that every child, regardless of their background, can benefit from STEM education. Our library is dedicated to fostering curiosity and scientific exploration among our middle school students, and expanding our chemistry collection will help to inspire the next generation of scientists.

Many of our students do not have the opportunity to explore their interests in STEM fields.

By having these items available, students will be able to learn about chemistry, science, and the groundbreaking women in the field of science. The goal of the library STEM center is to engage students in learning.

Your donation will contribute to the enrichment of our local community by promoting a love for learning and fostering critical thinking skills.
