We love a staff get-together!

To celebrate summer, our staff gathered for our annual picnic to share stories, meet family, reconnect, and enjoy local food trucks! Thanks to all who came out so we can celebrate everyone's contributions to the organization.

The first four weeks of our National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded program alongside UMKC came to a close, and now, our Scholars are hands-on, on-site, and expanding their knowledge with trusted employer partners!

A time was had at our KC Scholars Ambassador End-of-Year Celebration!

It's always extra special when we can have our Scholars come together to celebrate the semester's accomplishments. Having the chance to play some putt-putt is a nice bonus. ️

Thank you, ambassadors, for another year of amazing events!
