MATH/SCIENCE CONFERENCES

Mission

 The committees from both Redlands and San Gorgonio Pass organize yearly day-long conferences for 8th grade girls. The speakers relate the need for math and science in their particular field and encourage the girls to continue their math and science studies in high school.

We had great conferences this year! Our committees of volunteers hosted 600+ eighth grade girls in Redlands and 350 girls from Banning and Beaumont. The all day events are hosted at the respective colleges and include dozens of hands-on workshops led by women leading in their career fields. The presenters give the girls a taste of careers involving math and science.
