ABOUT US

MISSION: Deliver comprehensive cutting edge Science, Technology, Engineer, and Math (STEM) education and support to at-risk and underrepresented youth.

VISION: Increased levels of education, employment, and entrepreneurship in STEM fields for at-risk and underrepresented community members. Intersectional equity is achieved in STEM fields and the digital divide is closed.

UNIQUE WORKSHOPS: All-in-one, Tailored, Mobile. Star Tech Global Academy (STGA)'s novel approach lies in our unique combination of community-driven next generation curriculum and innovative all-in-one mobile workshops that are delivered on-site wherever needed. Our state of the art STEM & STEAM Workshops are delivered via our innovative Star Tech Fleet of mobile classroom supply vehicles. This mobility and self-sufficiency allows STGA to reach the most vulnerable populations often underserved by existing solutions.

STGA is a program offered by Renaissance 21, a 501(c)(3) organization. Renaissance 21 and STGA are Black and Female led.

FOUNDING STORY

Star Tech Global Academy grew out of the experience of program director Adrienne Pruszynski. Given difficulties in her journey as a Black woman learning STEM, she sought to empower other underrepresented youth as a STEM teacher. However, she found that programs frequently suffered from lack of resources and infrastructure. In response, she decided to found STGA to provide all-in-one, mobile STEM education and support.

This unique approach is able to reach the most resource-strapped communities and generate STEM interest in youth that would otherwise be unable to access available STEM opportunities.
