Last week, over 400 students from all 13 of
@ChiPubSchools early college STEM high schools attended the annual Women in STEM Career Fair at Wintrust Sports Complex.
Students met with female professionals from science, tech, and engineering companies, educational institutions and other organizations to learn about career paths and ask questions about working in STEM fields. Since the fair launched in 2024, the number of participating employers has doubled and the number of professionals tripled.
This event was made possible by the Bolhous Foundation's grant for Moving Women and Girls into STEM Careers. We're grateful to Bolhous Foundation for their support in creating this opportunity for CPS students.
Thank you as well to the companies and professionals who participated—your time and expertise made a real difference. @cpsSTEM
