What does a future in engineering actually look like? 🤔

That is what our Connections Program is built for. We team up with industry leaders to bring real-world engineering into the classroom, so students can picture themselves in careers they might never have considered.

This time that leader is Komatsu, a global force in construction and mining equipment. With automation, technology,, and robotics, they are changing what heavy machinery can do, and showing students where mechanical and electrical engineering can lead.

As back-to-school season begins, give your student a new skill to build every month.

Missions sends a new hands-on build to your door, and your student works through it at their own pace, growing in problem-solving, engineering, and creativity with every project.

Kick off the school year with their first order and get a free Measurement Tool Kit!

Students lean in when they can see where the learning leads. 🚒

Through the Connections Program, real professionals show students what their careers actually look like.

The City of Racine Fire Department shares day-in-the-life stories from firefighters and paramedics, so kids can picture a future in STEM and service long before they have to choose a path.

There's a moment when your child realizes the instrument in their hands is one they built. That's what this school year can hold. A real ukulele, assembled part by part, where the science of sound and real manufacturing meet. Start their build: stem101.org

The new school year is around the corner, and curiosity does not take a summer break.

STEM 101 sends a new hands-on project to your door every month. Kids ages 8 to 10 dig into Mini Missions, and students 11 and up take on full Missions built around real engineering challenges. No prep and no hunting for supplies, just a new build waiting when they are ready.

Heard about ESA funding but not totally sure what it is? Here's the guide version.

An Education Savings Account lets approved families use part of their child's state education funding on learning that fits them, from curriculum and materials to hands-on programs like STEM 101. You manage the account, and eligibility and approved expenses vary by state.

If you've been looking for a way to make quality STEM learning more affordable at home, this is worth a look.

Pick an emoji and follow it to your kid's next obsession.

Every kid has that one thing that makes them lean in. For some it is science, for others it is music, circuits, or building something that actually works. Trace your emoji to the end and see which STEM 101 kit was made for the way your child already thinks.
