STEM Center USA develops a passion for STEM careers at a young age, giving K-12 students an experiential, learn-by-doing curriculum delivered around the world — from our Creativity Centers in Southern California to classrooms and homeschool families everywhere. Co-founded by sisters Melissa and Lavanya Jawaharlal.
Whether a family walks into a Creativity Center, a school partners with us for a semester, or a homeschool co-op needs a ready-made curriculum, STEM Center USA meets K-12 students where they already are.
Individualized in-person K-12 classes at our Claremont and Rancho Cucamonga locations — small groups, real tools, and a curriculum built around robotics, coding, and the maker mindset.
Virtual or on-site K-12 STEM courses built for schools and districts — the same experiential curriculum, delivered wherever the students are, around the world.
STEM Center USA inspires the next generation of STEM leaders by developing a passion for STEM careers at a young age — every class is built around building, testing, and iterating, not sitting through a lecture.
"STEM Center USA has been a constant source of education and inspiration for my child — the staff are dedicated, caring, and completely devoted to student success."
A STEM Center USA parentMelissa and Lavanya Jawaharlal co-founded STEM Center USA to share their own passion for engineering and hands-on learning — creating a space to tinker, learn new skills, and be surrounded by the makers and shakers of tomorrow. The company's pitch earned investment offers from Chris Sacca and Lori Greiner on ABC's Shark Tank (Season 7, Episode 6).
