Support TFO's Mission
TFO's team is dedicated to working with local schools to create a personalized, adaptive trajectory for students through our comprehensive afterschool STEAMe program, "The Youth Exploring Options," and our summer STEAMe enrichment camp, "Discover Me." Both programs support students in overcoming obstacles that may hinder their long-term growth and success.
At TFO, we inspire our members to explore new passions within the STEAM/e fields. Each week, we host guest speakers who share their personal journeys, expertise, and reasons for choosing their field. These professionals proudly share both their achievements and the challenges they’ve overcome, offering students valuable insights into the realities of pursuing a career in STEAM/e. Our field trips further expose students to various career options, broadening their horizons and sparking interests in opportunities they may not have previously considered.
Our afterschool enrichment programs are specifically designed to ignite curiosity in math, science, and reading. We introduce our members to general STEAM/e concepts through visual and hands-on experiential activities. These engaging tasks encourage students to think creatively and approach challenges from new perspectives, fostering a love for learning in key academic areas.
