It’s not just about going EAST, it’s about going north, south, east and west -- it’s about radiating out in all directions and impacting 360 degrees around us.
Representatives from MoreTech visited with EAST students at Parson Hills Elementary. 3rd and 4th grade students had the opportunity to explore the world of robotics and learn how to work and play with robotic arms and launchers! #THEChoice
Girls at the Tyson School of Innovation not only are learning how to program and fly drones, they're going into elementary schools to teach younger girls how to do it as well.

Today we celebrated working with our 1000th Springdale student through our #Coding Takes Flight program. This has been an incredible program stressing the importance of #GirlsWhoCode and opportunities related to #STEM careers. Our mentors have been amazing! @EASTinitiative
The Don Tyson School of Innovation (@School_of_Innov) is five years old, and its drama program is in its first year under the full-time leadership of Kevin Cohea. Their spring production of "The Crucible," their first drama, is showing tonight.

What a great opportunity Coding Takes Flight had this past week to present to some exceptional young ladies @GirlsofPromise Summit. So much excitement in the air as these #GirlsWhoCode worked through obstacle courses and raced using #drones and #coding. @EASTinitiative
For the last 4 months, a combination of EAST and drones students from DTSOI have been working on a program that we have created called Coding Takes Flight. This program strives to introduce 3rd through 5th grade... facebook.com/SpringdaleSOI/p…
What a great 5 months for Coding Takes Flight! When we started we had a big audacious goal of reaching 500 elementary girls to promote #GirlsInSTEM by the end of the school year. Today we met that goal and are now looking to reach 1000! #ARKidsCanCode is for real! @AsaHutchinson
The EAST program from the Don Tyson School of Innovation was awarded the Cornerstone Award for Community and Collaboration recognizing the impact they have made within Springdale and across Northwest Arkansas.... facebook.com/SpringdaleSchoo…
So proud of our 3 difference maker coin recipients from #EASTCon19! Way to go Rita, Shannon, and Madelyn! We couldn’t be more excited about the work you do and the effort you give. @EASTinitiative@sdaleschools @School_of_Innov
Another year of #EASTCon19, another year of @KilwinsIceCream and playing in the hot springs with our partners from @ShawElementary. True collaboration begins with two scoops! Thanks @EASTinitiative for another great year! How do YOU build a bridge?
WOW. Such an incredible night. Congrats to our @Amazeum team, and our whole program for Cornerstone. Watching Catalina receiving her award tonight was the most special. She is such an incredible person and leader, no one could be more deserving. @EASTinitiative@ShawElementary
Such excitement today discussing our community impact and our collab w businesses, organizations, museums and schools. It’s not about going EAST. It’s about going N, S, E, and W, radiating out 360 degrees to impact all around us. @EASTinitiative#EASTCon19
Big thanks to the guys from @edutechguys for allowing us to share the work that we are doing to generate interest in #STEMeducation for our elementary aged female students. Coding Takes Flight plans to move out of Springdale and into the rest of Arkansas! @EASTinitiative
Exploring the @EASTovation at Don Tyson School of Innovation with @kelsey062 @AmandaW1952 Our student guide Steicy is already a pro!! Always love the idea of students as leaders! Ready to bring back some STEM ideas to @AOESPS#innovationineducation#stem
