ESTEEM STEAM
There is a national shortage of African American girls and Hispanics in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. M-PowerHouse of Greater Pittsburgh developed the Esteem STEAM all-female initiative to enlighten and encourage underrepresented girls from K to 12 to pursue STEAM careers.
The Esteem STEAM program addresses social factors and sparks inquisitiveness in STEAM through University, College, Healthcare Institutions, and Corporate Partnerships. A key factor is also mirroring emulating. This brings about a sense of pride to see professional women and others who challenge their critical-thinking process. M-PowerHouse recognizes hometown Sheroes and others who become that beacon of hope and turn dreams into reality and meet the future workforce needs of Allegheny County and surrounding areas.

As with retention, disparities in test scores start early, in kindergarten.
Black students entering kindergarten for the first time score lower than their white counterparts in reading, mathematics, science, cognitive flexibility, and approaches to learning — every category tested. The gaps persist throughout schooling, at fourth, eighth, and 12th grades, according to a report from the Forum on Child and Family Statistics. On the SAT, black students had a mean score of 428 for critical reading and 428 for math, compared with mean scores for white students of 527 for critical reading and 536 for math.
