From initiative to impact. SmartLab is built for the long term.
61% of teachers report that initiatives “come and go” at their schools,¹ and few Pre-K–12 STEM initiatives sustain after initial funding ends.² Meeting tomorrow’s workforce needs takes more than a one-off program, workshop, or equipment purchase. The SmartLab ecosystem integrates all five components—curriculum, hands-on tools and equipment, purposeful learning environments, professional development, and sustained support & partnership—into a unified ecosystem. This alignment builds consistent, career-connected experiences that strengthen students’ skills and identities over time. Let’s give your students a lasting STEM advantage.

Our district’s ability to go from limited or inconsistent STEM instruction to fully operational labs with consistent curriculum across all of our elementary schools has been a phenomenal transformation. SmartLab’s turnkey solutions allowed us to move quickly to implement a district- wide STEM program, which meant the students weren’t waiting 3–5 years for us to decide what “STEM” would look like...Now, our students are problem-solving through creative and collaborative learning each day. These skills are relevant today and will be imperative for our students’ future success and the success of our district-wide programming goals." —Bryan Frazier, Superintendent, Claremore Public Schools, Claremore, OK
