THE CHALLENGE
"If you think education is expensive, try ignorance."
African Proverb
Inner City School Teachers lack knowledge in the content needed to teach the STEM areas effectively.
Getting professionals to teach in an inner city is no easy feat since they are not prepared for the task at hand, dealing with the reality of poverty.
The supply of STEM jobs is exceeding the number of qualified professionals to fill them.

"The United States risks losing its competitive advantage if it continues with its business-as-usual approach and fails to equip its workforce with the education and skills to develop and field complex, cutting-edge emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, machine learning and hypersonics."
The Pentagon
Children of color are not incapable of learning STEM.
Our LIS camps and programs are specifically designed to provide the right
tools. They attract, engage, and inspire our children to "LEAN INTO STEM".
Our "LEGO Robotics" and "Art of STEM" camps are hands-on. They foster fun,
playful, sensory, organic and innovative learning environment and experiences.
The right "tools of engagement" are required
“You cannot make people learn. You can only provide the right conditions for learning to happen.”
