We’re honored to celebrate Black History Month with you this year! This year, we will be focusing on the innovations and achievements from Black and African American scientists, engineers and mathematicians. Keep an eye on our blog for additional resources for and featuring Black STEM professionals this month and year round.

Last month, Museum of Science, Boston & EiE’s Research & Evaluation Manager Chris San Antonio-Tunis, was part of an informational webinar: Inspiring Young Minds Through Out-of-School STEM. Gemma Lenowitz of Overdeck Family Foundation led our expert educator, as well as Nav Deol-Johnson of Imagine Science, Britt Magneson of National Inventors Hall of Fame® and Nick Monzi of Learn Fresh as they discussed why out-of-school STEM programs are so critical for both academic and social emotional learning

As part of our project with National Grid to distribute our engineering Try It! Kits to families across Massachusetts, we are excited to share a recent distribution event supporting youth through the Office for Refugees and Immigrants.

We’d like to extend an enormous thank you to National Grid for their generous donation that supports the distribution of our engineering Try It! Kits to families across Eastern Massachusetts! 

In partnership with Ina Heafitz, we are thrilled to announce that EiE® professional development and STEM classroom resources are being used to support the teachers and students of Hope Girls and Boys School in Arusha, Tanzania.
