STEM Program (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math)
This program provides incredible opportunities that promote 21st Century skills in the areas of technology, the sciences, math and engineering. The Casa de la Esperanza Robotics Academy was developed in the spring of 2007 to foster student’s engagement in their own education as they work with professional mentors in preparation for a robotics competition. These regional competitions are held at universities such as: University of Denver, University of Colorado at Denver and Boulder campuses, Regis University and others.
The Casa Robotics Academy includes:
The Casa Robotics Academy includes:
- JR. LEGO Robotics (ages 6-9 yrs.)
- LEGO Robotics (9-12 yrs.)
- VEX Robotics for 5-8th grade students
- FIRST Robotics Competition for high school youth.
Rocket Club
Our Rocket Club is a NASA-funded summer camp designed to get Casa de la Esperanza kids interested in math, science, and rockets. It's a unique, five-year program designed to teach middle school students about science and engineering through hands-on projects.
As part of the program, students learn Newton’s laws of motion, basic engineering, physics and more by using rockets as tools to teach the students. It is the hope of this program to inspire students to be our next astronauts, scientists, engineers and mathematicians.
