About: Letters to a Pre-Scientist

Property	Value
dbo:abstract	Letters to a Pre-Scientist (LPS) is a STEM education pen pal program that connects fifth to twelfth grade students in low-income schools with STEM professional volunteers, who write snail mail letters back and forth throughout a school year. The program’s mission is to help students of all backgrounds see themselves as future STEM professionals. Founder Macon Lowman started an informal version of the program in 2010 to help her sixth grade science students connect what they were learning in class to the real world. As of 2021, the program has reached over 6,000 students in schools across 13 states. (en)
