Small push.
Big lift.
Fulcrum STEM is a student-led program in Westborough, Massachusetts. We run hands-on rocketry and STEM showcases for kids across MetroWest, and show them the careers behind the science.

What we launch
STEM showcases
Free half-day events where kids design a rocket, test a launch, and meet student teams who compete.
Peer-taught workshops
High school students teach grades K–8 in small groups. Learning from someone a few years older makes the next step feel reachable.
Career conversations
Engineers and scientists explain what they do all day and how they got there, so kids see more paths than the ones they already know.
A shared network
We connect school clubs and local organizations so they can run joint events and share what works.
Why Fulcrum
A lever multiplies effort. Put the fulcrum in the right place and one unit of force holds four.
That is how we think about STEM outreach: one student, one club, or one engineer sharing an hour can change what a kid thinks is possible.
