Meet T-Bot, a jovial and inventive robot who lived in the colorful state of Tennessee, a place known for its grand mountains, melodious blues, and of course, the world-renowned home of Elvis, but that's a story for another time! This here tale is all about T-Bot and the little budding scientists, engineers, artists, and mathematicians across the state, also known as the STEM/STEAM whiz kids. These enthusiastic tinkerers, with their minds ablaze with curiosity, could turn even a spaghetti noodle into a suspension bridge, or a handful of colorful beads into a DNA model! Don't be surprised if you find them coding in the corners of their classrooms, or debating the physics of a seesaw during recess. T-Bot once visited a local science fair and was dumbfounded by the ingenuity of these kids. One built a volcano that erupted with glitter instead of lava, while another designed a complicated contraption that tossed pancakes! Their ideas were as diverse and dynamic as the Tennessee landscape, from the serene Smoky Mountains to the bustling city of Nashville. And you see, this robot had a unique way of showing emotions. Whenever T-Bot was impressed, he’d blink rapidly, and boy! Did those kids make him blink! The wild imagination of the Tennessee STEAM kids could light up T-Bot's circuits brighter than the neon signs of Nashville’s Broadway! In the land of the Volunteers, these kids were volunteering to make the world a better, and much more amusing, place with their innovative ideas!

Our special Science Club program is meticulously designed to cater to children from grades K-6. Each lesson in the Club SciKidz program is crafted to engage students in activities like observation, measurement, identifying properties, and conducting experiments around life, earth, and physical science concepts. Each unit is thoroughly researched by our team of science educators, with valuable inputs from teachers and children. The result is a set of lessons that not only entertain students but also foster genuine learning. Join us for a summer of science that promises to be full of fun and learning!
At MTR we believe that all people have inherent and equal value from simply being made in the image of God (Genesis 1:27). We recognize that educational outcomes are tied to markers of well-being such as health, income, and vocational choice/opportunities. As a result, we are dedicated to addressing the systemic inequities of education in Memphis so that class, age, ability, race, gender, religion, and other identity markers do not determine a person’s value. We are committed to creating a more equitable educational landscape in the city and honoring the dignity and worth of each and every person.
