About South Valley Science and Engineering Initiative

SVSEI's mission is to provide youth engagement in STEAM through both community outreach and by providing  a safe, inclusive science and engineering fair competition for 5th-8th grade students in Morgan Hill, Gilroy, and San Martin.

SVSEI emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the STEM local community.

Our strategic focus areas are:

  • To increase local elementary, middle, and high school-aged children’s science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) literacy, communication skills, and innovative thinking abilities
  • To give these students practice with the scientific method using real-world problems of their choosing
  • To provide student support to compete successfully at local and advanced STEM competitions
  • To collaborate with local schools and community organizations to provide STEM support
  • To provide a safe, inclusive, juried science and engineering fair for 5th-8th grade students
