Your STEM Journey

Empowering identity, fostering belonging, and connecting
Chicago Public Schools Communities in STEM!

STEM is more than science, technology, engineering, and math—it’s about curiosity, creativity, and solving real-world problems. STEM learning happens everywhere, from classrooms to community spaces, and every child’s STEM journey is unique.

As a parent or caregiver, you play a vital role in shaping opportunities that inspire growth and prepare your child for the future. Use our dashboards to discover experiences that align with your child’s interests, explore patterns that can guide next steps to spark or deepen knowledge, and advocate for what is needed in your community or school.
