What We Do

Growing the STEM created and runs the Mathletes Mentor program, which develops student leaders while giving younger students who need extra help a fun and positive experience with math.


We also start and lead math competition teams focused on the Northwest’s Math is Cool competition. We also create and run STEM Clubs, STEAM Clubs and Chess Clubs in local elementary and middle schools.


Our programs utilize student leaders as coaches, with assistance from adult coordinators.


Growing the STEM is an independent nonprofit organization. We are a registered 501(C)(3). Our extracurricular programs are run in partnership with local schools and are open to students of all abilities. They are always free of charge and are supported by generous donations from businesses, organizations, and individuals in our community and beyond.

Emmie says:

 "At first I was nervous then it was fun and I started to learn things, and it helped me in school a lot. Everyone was really nice and encouraged me to try new strategies and different ways of thinking.  The competition was fun and everyone was nice.  I made new friendships and learned things I haven't learned in class, so when my teacher introduced it helped me solve the problems faster."
