Less screen time. More everything else. 🧠💡

🚨 BIG NEWS FOR NORTHEAST OHIO 🚨

STEM Playbook is proud to partner with the Fallen Fathers, Youth Success Summit, and Akron Public Schools for an exciting 3-week summer experience focused on one of the most important questions young athletes face:

🏈⚾🏀 What happens after the final whistle?

Together, we’ll help students explore life beyond the game through hands-on STEM experiences, career discovery, leadership development, and real-world connections to the careers that power sports and business.

Participants will discover:

✅ Careers in sports, technology, healthcare, engineering, media, and entrepreneurship

✅ How skills learned through athletics translate to future careers

✅ The importance of leadership, teamwork, communication, and problem-solving

✅ Pathways to success both on and off the field

We’re excited to work alongside the incredible teams at the Fallen Fathers Foundation and Youth Success Summit to empower the next generation of leaders in Akron.

The game may end, but the opportunities don’t. 🏆 Building futures. Inspiring purpose. Creating pathways.

The "transfer of learning" is one of the toughest metrics to hit in youth programming. 🎒

It's one thing for students to engage during a program, but application outside the original context is the highest bar in learning science.

70% of our student participants planned to apply what they learned back in school. That’s real impact you can take to your board. 📈

What strategies do you use to help students connect program concepts with their classrooms?
