Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) is a conference for girls 6th through 10th grade. This day-long event will include hands-on activities in STEM. At the conference, girls will get a chance to meet STEM role models and learn more about careers in those fields. The ultimate goal of this event is to motivate girls to become innovative and creative thinkers ready to meet 21st Century challenges.
