Salvation Army After-School Program

The Salvation Army Tehachapi After-School Program would like to send a BIG "Thank You" to the Bank of the Sierra Grant Program for their generous grant towards their summer S.T.E.M. class! The S.T.E.M. class is a component of the After-School Program designed around Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. Students are able to learn how such things work while they are in a creative, supervised environment. The program is eight weeks long and takes place during the summer months, allowing the students to continue exercising their mind and expanding their knowledge throughout summer vacation. Each week the students participate in an experiment or activity, which then qualifies them to participate in the Fun Fridays where the students are taken off campus to continue their learning through an active field trip!
