Flagstaff STEM City

STEM City was born out of a shared community vision to recognize, celebrate

and expand the tremendous human and capital assets in Science,

Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) that exist in Flagstaff.

We connect the vibrancy of Flagstaff’s STEM businesses, organizations and

resources to our schools, students, and families to strengthen our education,

economy and environment. We employ our passion for STEM to empower

and create real, meaningful impact for all the citizens of Flagstaff.
