The WiSE K-12 Outreach Committee is dedicated to sparking curiosity and expanding access to STEM, empowering young girls to see themselves as future scientists, engineers, and innovators. Through interactive workshops, classroom visits, and community partnerships, we create opportunities for local girls in the community to engage with women in STEM and discover the excitement of science and engineering.
