San Jacinto College invites media to experience its annual STEM Expos — a hands-on community celebration of science, technology, engineering, and math that inspires the next generation of innovators. These events are hosted in partnership with Communities In Schools (CIS) of East Harris County.

This year’s “Out of This World” theme will feature interactive exhibits, experiments, and demonstrations designed to engage students and families from across the region.
