Bright Minds Academy An afterschool learning program for primary school students

Bright Minds Academy is an extension of the BETA Camp program that targets students in grades 4-6. Bright Minds serves as an after-school program that will augment classroom learning by exposing students at the primary school level to the wonders of STEM education. The program will provide students with lessons and activities that focus on developing 21st century learning skills. Key topics that will be covered include:

• Coding (Scratch & Codepen)

• Electrical Circuitry

• Experimental Chemistry

• Robotics

• Mechanical Engineering (machines)

• Structural Engineering (bridges)

Our pilot programs which ran from 2017-2018 in Freeport and the fall semester of 2018 at Summit Academy proved successful. The pilot not only showed us that students possess both the appetite and aptitude for this kind of learning but that this kind of new and innovative programming is necessary to transform education in the country.
