Abstract
The High School Student Teacher Outreach Mentorship Program (HS-STOMP) is an outreach opportunity for high school students to/lex their knowledge of science, engineering, and technology through a teaching experience. The program is designed as a learning opportunity to deepen and strengthen the high school students' understanding of science, while facilitating the learning of engineering and technology principles for K-8 students and teachers. This paper describes the concept of HS-STOMP, the development of the program, the program in action, and the challenges faced in the three-year evolution of HS-STOMP.
