High School – Community College Collaboration
Community college invited middle school girls enrolled in the PLTW Gateway program to the campus where they were introduced to various engineering career fields through speakers and projects.• 40% said they would like to pursue a STEM career,
with 11% specifically stating Engineering• 83% of the girls said that they would like to take an
engineering class in high school. • The next fall, 7 ninth grade girls enrolled in the PLTW
introduction to engineering course (previously there was only one ninth grade girl enrolled) and 18 ninth grade girls enrolled in beginning drafting.
