An inspiring monthly program dedicated for girls and nonbinary students in 5th-8th grade. The program includes an inspiring one-day conference for 100-150 girls usually on a Saturday, augmented by monthly in-depth workshops and camps led by professional women in STEM. The girls experience new STEM hands-on activities in small groups and engage in a friendly, safe environment to make long-lasting friendships.

Due to our funding restrictions, priority is given to students in Northern New Mexico in the following counties: Santa Fe, Taos, San Miguel, Mora, Sandoval, Rio Arriba, and Los Alamos.

Fuel your child's curiosity and creativity at our exciting STEM Summer Camps!

STEM Summer Circles offer a variety of topics for New Mexican students. These are designed to be focused on a single theme related to STEM and STEAM topics.

Our middle & high school programs supplement students’ STEM education with in-school, hands-on STEM & STEAM projects designed to engage & teach 21st century skills in small group settings with trained college students & STEM professional mentors. Our main goals are to increase students’ interest & curiosity in STEM courses or careers, build communication, teamwork, & problem solving skills, and for our high school students, increase enrollment in STEM college courses while in high school and/or beyond.

Advocating for STEAM programs through collaborations, outreach and partnerships. Mentoring and supporting STEM teams/clubs in STEM competitions: Meow Wolf, Congressional App Challenge, NM Electric Car Challenge, RoboRAVE, and Mathcounts. New in 2021-2022: STEM Saturdays @ Santa Fe Public Library – Southside Branch.

STEM Santa Fe is developing a new series of programs and events with and for Indigenous communities - the Indigenous Partnerships Initiative - where we offer culturally appropriate, hands-on options for Indigenous youth. Programs help increase Indigenous student identification with STEM as a potential career option with a focus on digital justice storytelling.

Our Indigenous Partnerships Initiative is a way to inspire and provide STEM-related support and instruction for Indigenous youth. The program serves as a conduit for future Indigenous high school and college students to become STEM leaders in our state and beyond. We aim to foster future mentors and interns with us and our key community partners, including Santa Fe Indian School, the Shiprock Mobile Studio & Storytelling Lab, Pueblo de San Ildefonso (Poh-whogeh-owingeh), and Nambe Pueblo (Nambe Owingeh).

Shiprock Mobile Studio & Storytelling Lab

Shiprock Mobile Studio was started by teacher and award winning filmmaker Dwayne Joe (Dine'/Hopi) with the goal of teaching students from Indigenous nations the art of filming and storytelling.

The program introduces Indigenous youth to the basics of filmmaking and encourages creative storytelling. Local high schoolers receive direct support from experts in the digital media and filmmaking fields to create their own professional-quality content. With support from the Santa Fe Creative Coding Initiative and the Central Consolidated School District, students receive support to produce high-caliber films using Apple devices.
