On May 10, at Marietta High School from 6-8 pm in the cafeteria area, they are having their “Marietta City Schools Engineering Pipeline Research Symposium.” They would love for you to come, set up a table, and represent your organization. (If you teach with Cobb County, they’d love to have you come and support the event!)
 
Projects from Lockheed Elementary will include composting, vermicomposting, classroom aquaponics, and a sustainable, portable off-the-grid tiny house powered by solar energy built by multiple grade levels that ties into various science, math, and SS standards. Other elementary schools, Marietta Middle, and Marietta High will have exciting projects and research to present as well.
 
Additionally, a VR/AR/3D bus  will provide in-house field trips so students can experience learning in an engaging way. Please let me know if you will be able to join us as a visitor or at a table representing your organization.

Wild and crazy ideas become reality in this year’s all-new Camp Invention program, Fast Forward! A nonprofit program of the National Inventors Hall of Fame, Camp Invention allows children in kindergarten through 6th grade to experience real-world problem solving, creative thinking, invention, and teamwork – all while having FUN! Activities include challenges and achievements from the brightest thinkers around—National Inventors Hall of Fame Inductees – to inspire children! This year, campers will bring their “smart” home to life with smart furniture and eco-smart energy, design a robotic dog and diagnose puppy problems, explore sensors by designing tracks for an Optibot, a robot that senses dark and light surfaces, and build Cake Catapults! Local educators lead the week of fun, hands-on, STEM activities that allow children to think big, explore their curiosity, and never give up. Early registration discounts are available.

STEM Goes Red 2018  Friday, May 4, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m
The American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women Atlanta team is hosting its inaugural STEM Goes Red event, aimed at empowering girls to improve the cardiovascular health of all Americans through a career in the sciences.

What is STEM Goes Red? A day-long event to inspire girls to explore STEM outside the classroom and embrace being heart healthy. Participants will be exposed to some of Atlanta’s leading science, technology and engineering companies like Georgia Power, Goldman Sachs, UPS and PricewaterhouseCoopers as they showcase their innovative work. This event will consist of speed mentoring, breakout sessions led by top STEM-related organizations, and opportunities to make lasting connections with companies and leaders.
Students will walk away knowing they can make an impact through a career in STEM!
