STEAM Education
The Achieve Foundation promotes access to experience-based STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Math) education for all students at all grade levels – including maker spaces, robotics, computer programming, CAD design, technology, bioinformatics and more. STEAM education combines art and creativity with new technology in all subject areas.
Maker Madness is Back at CHS in 2023!
Everyone is invited to join us Saturday, April 29th between 10 AM-3PM for Achieve’s popular family-friendly STEAM fair, with 25+ FREE hands-on activities and learning experiences for kids of all ages. #WhatWillYouMake?
It takes a village to bring Maker Madness to the community. Sign up here to help out on April 29th.
We’re seeking donations of electronics and mechanical devices for our popular tear-down station. Learn more about where, when and what you can drop-off.
To learn about sponsoring this community-wide event that attracts hundreds of kids and their grown-ups email director@achievefoundation.org.
