AAUW Port Townsend Branch supports STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) with several scholarships and awards.
Scholarships: See STEM (Environmental), Technical, Math and Medical categories…
Awards: Young women students are nominated by their east Jefferson County schools:
- STEM High School awards
- STEM 7th graders for Tech Trek summer camp
We present a Certificate of Achievement and a small gift to the winners of our annual school STEM awards. Typically, nine high school scholars in Jefferson County receive the awards. The winners are nominated by their high school teachers and counselors for their outstanding work in STEM subjects. See their photos and names below.
While this is a small award monetarily, it is an honor to be chosen by their schools as the top female student in the STEM areas.
Tech Trek summer STEM camp for students finishing 7th grade is offered to all the east Jefferson County school systems who nominate their students who would most benefit from the experience. Read more…
