One of the ways we do this is through our science and math programs. We assume that girls are interested in math, science, and technology and can be successful. This spring, for example, we are offering Super Science, Science Adventure, Math without a Pencil, The Science Chef, and Kitchen Chemistry. At the middle-school level, we offer special structured programs and focus on homework help and tutoring in math and science. Women from the community lead activities, provide technical assistance, speak about their science careers, and host girls at their science, math, and technology workplaces.
Eighth graders have a similar program but focus on environmental science rather than architecture.
Fridays are reserved for career and college-related field trips.
