The Tippecanoe STEAM Boosters would like to welcome
you to our website. STEAM stands for Science - Technology - Engineering
- And - Mathematics.
In 2006, federal, state and local government agencies, universities,
businesses and industries all recognized and reported on the
increasing need and decreasing availability of students interested
and proficient in the STEM career fields (science, technology,
engineering and mathematics). "Read the Ohio Academy of
Science STEM statement here."
Local professionals recognized the limited resources available
to Tipp City Schools to implement the recommended and/or mandated
steps to address this problem locally; and so formed the Tippecanoe
STEAM Boosters, Inc. to aid in addressing this problem.
Tippecanoe STEAM Boosters, Inc. wishes to promote interest
in the academic areas of science, technology, engineering and
mathematics to Tipp City School District students by enhancing
their learning experience inside and outside the classroom through
the development and support of STEAM related programs, by facilitating
the acquisition of additional equipment and/or learning materials,
by identifying and providing mentors, by seeking and obtaining
funds from grants and donations and directing their use toward
those ends; and by creating a positive and enriched overall school
environment where students interested in the STEAM fields are
respected, admired and recognized as a source of school pride
by the student body, the school faculty & staff, and by the
community at large.
Please take some time to review all of the information here
and check back often for updates. If you have any questions about
the organization, membership or donations, please contact us.
"Tippecanoe STEAM Boosters, Inc. is
a not-for-profit 501(c)3 public charity corporation.
