    Wolf OR-7 (Also named Journey by PPS students)
    Apr 17, 2020
    News Item

    Thank you Wolf OR-7!

    It began, as it usually does, with a question. Who is Wolf OR-7? Learning about the 7th wolf to be fitted with a radio-collar tracking device in Oregon led to the next question. Born and raised in Oregon, why have I never seen or heard of wolves here before? Why are wolves endangered? What can I do to help raise awareness about endangered species in Oregon?

    Girls Engage Technology Program has Expanded to Hillsboro

    This fall, Saturday Academy expanded the Girls Engage Technology (GET) program to partner with afterschool all-girl STEM clubs in five Hillsboro middle schools. The goal of the GET program is to provide positive engineering experiences to young girls to give them confidence, so they take the next step in STEM learning. Partnering with the STEM clubs allows the GET program to expose girls to various aspects of STEM to pave the way for them to enroll in more STEM classes in high school. GET is providing four weeks of programming for the STEM clubs.

    Just Try It – STEM Career Exploration

    As students approach their senior year, it seems the number of people who ask “so what do you plan to do next?” increases exponentially. For those who have known what they want to do since forever, the answer is easy. For the majority of students, however, it’s a big question. 

    The good news is that committing to one career and workplace for the rest of your life is a relic of previous generations. The bad news is that becoming good at any skill or career can take a lot of time and money, so the sooner you find something that you enjoy doing day-in and day-out the better.
