Middle School Girls Conference

What Is It?

Coordinated by the PAVTEC Gender Equity Team, the mission of the Conference is to encourage middle school girls to take math, science and technology courses throughout high school.

The goals of the Conference are:

  1. to introduce the girls to female role models in math, science, and technology, and
  2. to provide middle school girls with stimulating and exciting experiences related to math, science and technology.

The PAVTEC Gender Equity Team is composed of volunteers that include active and retired educators and other lay people who have a passion to promote the opportunities for women in nontraditional careers.

This year's conference is sponsored by contributions from Oregon Department of Education Office of Professional Technical Education and PAVTEC.
