What We Do

Prairie STEM is dedicated to fostering learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM). We offer comprehensive experiential opportunities for students, educators, and the community. Serving as the bridge between education and industry, Prairie STEM leaves a lasting impact on every participating student. Through frequent interactions and dedicated time with students, we aim to maximize our influence by collaborating with trusted partners who share our fundamental values and goals. Our mission is to empower students to recognize their intrinsic value and understand that encountering failure is an essential aspect of success. This perspective helps them appreciate the lessons of grit, determination, and perseverance, crucial not only for workforce development but also for life in general.
