School Girls Lead the Way in Robotics

Curated by Julian Montoya

This summer, STEM is getting a serious glow-up in Solano County! The Girls in Robotics Leadership (GIRL) Camp at Solano Community College is back and better than ever. This free, week-long adventure gives middle and high school girls the chance to build robots, explore coding, and flex their leadership skills in a fun, supportive environment.

Led by local educators and mentors, campers dive into hands-on tech projects, make new friends, and discover how cool STEM can really be. Whether you’re into tech, teamwork, or just curious about how robots work, this camp is the perfect summer-level-up.

Let’s geek out and make this summer one for the circuits! Learn more here: https://www.solanocoe.net/Educational-Services/Curriculum–Instruction/STEAM/Girls-In-Robotics-Leadership-Summer-Camp/index.html
