It is difficult for every elementary, middleengineering. The repeated visits also allow the EOW and high school to have the correct equipment to teach theteam members to develop a rapport with the students five main engineering disciplines. Other concerns includethat they are working with to enable them to provide the lack of interest the students may have, the knowledge thementorship and guidance in advising the children on a teachers have for the subject and the lesson/laboratory spacepath to a successful career within the STEM
