Project Curiosity is a school-based enrichment program for preschool through eighth grade students. We offer classes with a focus on ten STEM related domains containing content rich, hands-on labs that allow students to explore their interests in STEM subjects while having FUN. We help build critical thinking skills, problem solving skills, teamwork and of course curiosity!
Early exposure to STEM concepts in education has been in high demand in recent years. However, not all schools have the monetary resources to provide a STEM program within their schools’ curriculum.
An inquisitive attitude and deeper understanding of STEM ideas are critical in order to propel our world into the future. At Project Curiosity, our mission is to fill this need and help inspire kids to explore STEM ideas through education, discovery and play.
Why Project Curiosity?
Hands-On Learning
We bring the fun to your campus while providing the opportunity to discover and explore in a low pressure environment. Learning through doing and creating is proven to be more engaging and beneficial in retaining and mastering challenging concepts.
Passionate Educators
Our curriculum is packed with exciting activities taught by educators with a passion for all things STEM. Together, we will create an enriching and exceptional educational experience for your students.
Why STEM?
The core ideas taught in STEM education foster the
“thinking outside the box” creativity sought after in today’s
technology based world. The skills gained in practicing innovative
and curious thinking are transferable to any future career.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects that occupations in the STEM fields are expected to grow by 10.8% through 2031 compared with 4.9 for non-STEM occupations. For example, Cyber security will have a 33% projected job growth and Computer Science, 22% growth. Lifetime earnings are 1.67 million. Those who hold a degree in a STEM field earn a higher salary on average than those that do not. The average yearly salary for all STEM workers is $95,420 while the median annual wage of non-STEM occupations is $40,000.
