Description
Newton's Attic, a nonprofit founded in 1998 by Bill Cloyd, is dedicated to providing students with highly unusual educational experiences and providing STEM (Science Technology, Engineering Mathematics) educational resources to parents, students and teachers at the middle and high school levels.
Our programs are utilized by school districts, home-schoolers and in summer camps throughout Central Kentucky and even schools as far away as Colorado. Since inception, Cloyd has worked with numerous schools in Central Kentucky, including Jessamine, Scott and Woodford counties, seven schools within Fayette County and with Eastern Kentucky children through the Christian Appalachian Project. Newton’s Attic is now piloting a program where robots can be controlled over the Internet, which will allow for nation-wide and even world-wide competition.
