About Our Previous STEAM Showcase
On March 13, 2024, Sandy Springs Education Force presented our 14th Annual STEAM Showcase. The public attended this exciting, hands-on STEAM event from 6-8 pm. We so appreciate that many of our long-time exhibitors and sponsors, as well as numerous exciting new exhibitors and sponsors, have participated in this very successful event attended by over 1700 middle and high school students during the day and over 900 elementary school students and community members at night.

Review the videos that Fulton County Schools created about the event in 2024 and in 2023:
The Showcase is followed by STEAM outreach events, field trips and programs in our schools. SSEF twice received the Georgia STEM Award for Extracurricular Programs by the Technology Association of Georgia for this program. This program serves 2300 students at an annual cost per student of $5.00.
Legacy Grants
From the funds raised through STEAM Showcase sponsorships, SSEF offers STEAM grant opportunities to all public schools in Sandy Springs for ongoing after-school STEAM clubs and programs. Grant recipients display their projects at the annual STEAM Showcase. This program serves 260 students at an annual cost of $122 per student.

SSEF Math Madness Tournament
Sandy Springs Education Force hosts a Math Olympiad. In 2024, it was the only tournament in Georgia, for the International Math Olympiads for Elementary and Middle Schools. The objectives of MOEMS® are to teach multiple strategies for outside-of-the-box problem solving, develop mathematical flexibility in solving those problems and foster mathematical creativity and ingenuity. Teams of third, fourth, fifth and sixth graders prepare throughout the year and compete at the Olympiad on a Saturday. SSEF covers all costs for this program; families and schools participate for free.
