This is where creativity meets craftmanship.

With support from SEF, Sycamore Middle School Students now have access to a professional wood jointer and upgraded sanding tools, allowing them to design, build, and refine projects with greater precision. These hands-on experiences transform curiosity into capability and build real-world skills.

Every student deserves the opportunity to explore, experiment, and succeed.

SEF was able to award a $3,219 grant to the Sycamore Middle School STEM students. Students are now using Sphero Indi robots to build coding and problem-solving skills through hands-on learning. These experiences grow confidence, spark curiosity, and wouldn’t have happened without the support from the community and SEF!

When students can see science in action, learning sticks.

Thanks to SEF, Southeast Elementary 4th graders are experiencing their geology unity in a hands-on-way. They are able to observe how rocks change and discover the science behind it.

Some of the most important moments in learning happen through play.

With support from SEF, the Little Spartans Early Education Program received new building blocks to strengthen play-based learning and classroom experiences. These early moments of discovery, collaboration, and creativity are the foundation for everything that follows. These types of moments are the moments that wouldn’t have happened without the support of our community!
