Description - In 2015 Girls Building STEAM was started to encourage students in grades 3-5 to explore STEAM fields and have fun with learning. The program has since grown to include middle and high school students who have taken on leadership roles in the program. In this session our current student leaders will share their ideas for building student leadership and encouraging girls to take an active role in learning. Plans for club meetings, advertising, grant writing ideas, and more will be shared with attendees in order to encourage more clubs for Girls in STEM and leadership.
