Description
"At Root To STEM Education Foundation we envision and are working towards a world where a students access to educational resources and assistance are not limited by where a student’s family is from - RtS-edu’s online content as well as virtual tutoring, at-home projects/hands on environmental learning, and technology loans to STEM the Digital-Divide empower distance learning capabilities from the inner-city to the most remote communities.
We see tremendous implications for education equality. "levelling the playing field" for students in low-income or rural areas areas with locationally independent and free STEM, Environmental, and College Preparatory learning - leading to needed diversity in high-income STEM careers, engagement and knowledge in environmental fields and breaking the multigenerational poverty cycle - is at the heart of why Root to STEM Education Foundation exists.
We also provide private tutoring is STEM, general ACT/SAT/GRE and other test preparation for low-income area, opportunity zone, hub zone, minority, and rural students as well as ANY first generation college student of their family to help disrupt generational poverty.
