Sierra Nevada Journeys, a Northern Nevada-based organization focused on delivering science education programs to youth in order to develop critical thinking skills, is expanding its STEM Enrichment Fund to offer programming to every elementary school in four Nevada counties thanks to a $50,000 donation from Google.
Sierra Nevada Journeys is offering scholarships to every elementary school in Carson City, Storey, Lyon and Washoe counties.
The education organization’s STEM Enrichment Fund supports scholarships for their benchmark Classrooms Unleashed and Family STEM Nights. Classrooms Unleashed is offered to 1st-6th grade students, combining classroom and field-based programming designed to meet grade-specific Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
Family STEM Nights bring the whole family unit together via science activities to help students engage more with their school curriculum. These programs will be prioritized for students and schools with financial barriers to participation.
