Congratulations to…
Carolyn Blocker
Long Beach School for Adults
She will receive $20,000, which she plans to use to implement a program called Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead in the LBC. This new initiative will give families the opportunity to explore their Long Beach City community through the lens of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (S.T.E.A.M.), a curriculum framework that merges sciences and the arts. In this family engagement project, parents will attend regular workshops and plan five parent and child excursions in the community—exposing parents and children to a global educational approach while building a stronger workforce one family at a time.
