About the conference

ENROLLMENT WINDOW OPENS THE WEEK OF JANUARY 9TH, 2012
Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) is a conference for girls in middle school. This day-long event will include hands-on activities in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). At the conference, girls will get a chance to meet STEM role models and learn more about careers in those fields. Our ultimate goal is to motivate girls to become innovative and creative thinkers ready to meet 21st Century challenges.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are a student at Altama Elementary, Burroughs-Molette Elementary, Glyndale Elementary, Glynn Middle, Golden Isles Elementary, Jane Macon Middle, Needwood Middle, RECA, Satilla Marsh Elementary, or Sterling Elementary your $5.00 registration fee will be paid by the school.
