Through Science in Our Backyard, girls are empowered to lead in the interdisciplinary field of STEAM (STEM+Art). They participate in exciting interactive activities in technology, design, and art while exploring the natural history of the greater Farmington area, taking almost daily walking trips to the Farmington River banks and local garden plots. Field trips include the Connecticut Science Center, the Institute for American Indian Studies, and Sub Edge Farm, a biodynamic organic farm. Girls ultimately undertake a project applicable to the local community and complete the program with a better understanding of sustainability and impact.
