. Based on school improvement literature, teachers are the most important school-based factor impacting student achievement7. Though not a direct objective of miniGEMS,the literature suggests that improvement to teacher quality is most affected by long termprofessional development as opposed to a one-time workshop8. Based on this information and conversations with local school leaders, the authors beganhosting the miniGEMS STEM camp for the first time in Summer 2015. miniGEMS is a free five-day long STEM summer camp for middle school girls from various local school districts.
