On behalf of the State of Florida, Sen. Aaron Bean recently presented a $975,000 check to Kathleen Schofield, executive director of STEM2 Hub, and Gary Chartrand, chair of the hub’s corporate board. The funding provides much needed science, technology, engineering and mathematics training leading to expanded career opportunities for Northeast Florida STEM students.
The goal of STEM2 Hub’s project is to expand access to 21st-century skills development and greater exposure to technology programs like robotics and coding.
