Congratulations to Miranda D., Roxanne F., Icess F., and Paola R. our Tech Trek scholarship winners. This year, Four Los Nietos Middle School 7th graders girls have been chosen to receive a scholarship to Tech Trek technology summer camp. Valued at $900 each, the scholarship was given by the Whittier chapter of the American Association of University Women. This year the AAUW Whittier Branch selected 10 girls with 4 of them Los Nietos students.
Tech Trek is designed to give students hands on science and math experiences as well as, expose the girls to careers in Math and Science. The students will be spending 7 days at Whittier College from June 15-21 with over 100 girls from all over Southern California. The camp experience includes classes, workshops, and field trips throughout the day, but will have no homework!
