Girls, Boys, and 'Bots: The St. Clare's robotics team [Pipelining: Attractive Programs for Women]

With the school's strong focus on STEM, by the time students are old enough to join a FIRST LEGO League (FLL) team in fourth grade, they've already learned some basic robotics and cultivated strategies for developing and presenting a scientific research project.
