“So often women are taught not to speak up and not to advocate for themselves, especially in the world of STEM. When we don’t hear the voices of women, we are missing the perspectives, experiences, and unique ideas that women have. We are losing the voices of half of the world’s population. In doing so we are limiting ourselves in what we can imagine and what we can create. Diversity breeds creativity and without creativity we can’t have innovation.” -Erin Clothier [12]

Today we finished the first ever RAHS Green Energy Onboarding Curriculum!
•
Over the course of the last 5 months, experienced team members teach weekly lessons about the basics of building a solar car. After rolling out this new model in September, we have been so excited to see new members learning and getting involved.
•
Now we are beginning to engage new members on projects of their own to apply the knowledge learned from the curriculum!

“After working all year on the solar car as a freshman, I learned lots of important skills not only in the shop from upperclassmen, but sportsmanship, and leadership that comes with being on the team. As a freshman I had lots of clubs to choose from, some of which were very interesting. One stood out to me, one that none of my friends joined. Instead of making little mouse trap cars and little wooden bridges, I was making a car, not only that but it was powered by the sun. Now I am on my third year on the team and exited to continue building and learning.” -Teddie Blahous [11]
