Challenge

Many Title I students in Bay County lack access to high-quality summer enrichment programs due to financial barriers, causing learning loss and limiting early exposure to science, technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM). Without affordable summer opportunities, students entering 4th-6th grade miss critical chances to build skills, confidence, and interest in academic pathways that shape long-term success.

Solution

This project provides summer camp scholarships to elementary Title I students and removes financial barriers that prevent access to high-quality STEAM enrichment. Through partnerships with local colleges, arts organizations, and science programs, students participate in hands-on learning experiences that build academic skills, confidence, and curiosity during the critical summer months. The program reinforces learning, strengthens peer connections, and sustains academic growth over time.

Long-Term Impact

This project reduces summer learning loss and increases educational equity for Title I students in Bay County by providing consistent access to STEAM enrichment. Students who return year after year build stronger academic skills, confidence, and interest in STEAM fields, increasing long-term college readiness and future workforce participation.
