Girls in Engineering, Mathematics, and Science (GEMS) and Guys in Science and Engineering (GISE) are after-school and summer programs designed specifically for 4th - 8th grade girls and boys (respectively) in the Minneapolis Public School District with the goal that students will have measurable and significant gains in mathematics and science.
Inaugurated in 1997, the success of GEMS prompted the development of GISE in 2006.
GEMS and GISE are supported through the collaborative efforts of the Minneapolis Public School District, the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers, and Achieve!Minneapolis. Principal benefactors and community partners include The Medtronic Foundation, The Cargill Foundation, ADC Foundation, The Best Buy Children’s Foundation, Lockheed Martin, Mortenson Family, NASA, and Augsburg College.
