Yes, underserved minority and underrepresented youth, like girls, deserve brilliant futures in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). At IndySTEAM Academy (IndySTEAM), we believe in nurturing every scholar’s unique potential and dreams, preparing them for today’s high wage, high demand careers in STEM. At our tuition-free public charter school for grades K-7, each and every scholar in Indianapolis deserves this chance.

Preparing for High School and College in Indianapolis

We support and nurture Indianapolis youth, grades K-7, for bright futures with utmost academic rigor. Longer school days, smaller classes, and longer school years ensure our scholars practice respect and essential life skills for success beyond grade school. Part of our successful education model includes 90 minutes of science and engineering curriculum every day.

Full STEAM Ahead!

According to recent studies, STEM careers are growing twice as fast as non-STEM careers, and paying more than double the salary. Although current statistics show low representation of BIPOC and female-identifying employees in STEM fields, we also know that we play an important role in creating positive change. The more positive influence and examples we can show our scholars that they too deserve these high demand, high income careers, the more we turn STEAM dreams into reality.

What are the Benefits to STEAM Education?

There are many benefits to STEAM education beyond the career opportunities:

• Critical Thinking & Problem-Solving skills
