The aim of this class is to help young girls develop positive self-esteem and self-worth, as well as encouraging them to find their voice and use it in an impactful way. History has shown that women like Katherine Johnson and Rosa Parks, whose actions changed the world, did so despite the challenges they faced along the way. We want to equip our female students with the tools and inspiration to pave the path of their future, just as the women of our history did.  Each week, students will learn about influential woman in history, what they are known for and the traits they exhibited to achieve their success and participate in an activity (art, movement, writing, and peer collaboration) to put the traits into practice.

At the end of the Winter session, we want the students to leave empowered and believe that they can do anything they set their minds to!

Note: Current research shows that only 34% of women make up the workforce in STEM fields even though they account for 51% of the population. Additionally, in 2021 the CDC (Center for Disease Control) reported a dramatic increase in teen girls who felt sad or hopeless om their daily lives. “According to CDC data, “nearly 3 in 5 (57%) U.S. teen girls felt persistently sad or hopeless — double that of boys, representing a nearly 60% increase and the highest level reported over the past decade.” Girls with Confidence has the purpose of recognizing these statistics by helping young girls develop positive self-esteem and self-worth as well as encouraging them to find their voice and use it in an impactful way.
