Full STEAM Ahead is our community initiative dedicated to fostering social-emotional learning (SEL) competencies through engaging, STEAM-based activities. Our program focuses on providing valuable educational resources and services to Title 1 elementary schools in Durham. By combining science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics with SEL, we create opportunities for students to develop critical interpersonal and leadership skills, emotional awareness, and the confidence to succeed academically and personally. Our mission is to empower students with the tools they need to thrive both in school and in life.
