STEAM Truck!


WhaT IS STE(A)M Truck?

STE(A)M Truck is the hugely innovative, results-producing, award-winning program from Community Guilds designed to help eliminate inequities and catalyze transformation.  We are a growing fleet of mobile makerspaces wrapped around a dense, multi- faceted curriculum that is designed to pull kids, and their teachers, out of their comfort zones and have them see their awesome potential.

Why do we do it?

According to the 2015 NAEP (considered the Nation's Report Card), after 13 years of public schooling, less than 40% of students are ready for college and career success.   The research is clear.  Access to hands-on building, tinkering, and the kinds of curriculum offered through STE(A)M Truck can increase access to STEM careers and build the skills critical for long term success. However, the tools, expertise, and time needed to utilize these types of strategies are usually unavailable in public schools, and especially so in public schools serving low income communities.
