THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THE ACADEMY IS TO INSPIRE STUDENTS FROM KINDERGARTEN TO 12TH GRADE IN THE GREATER LOS ANGELES COMMUNITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE USING SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN THE ACADEMY'S PROGRAMS, CURRICULUM, FACILITIES, AND EVENTS WILL LEARN TO CREATE BREAKTHROUGHS USING "STEM" (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATH) CURRICULA AND DEVELOP CREATIVITY IN CUTTING EDGE INNOVATIONS. FOR MANY YOUNG MINDS, STEM IS THEIR KEY TO A SUCCESSFUL FUTURE, AND THE ACADEMY IS COMMITTED TO PREPARING STUDENTS TO THRIVE IN A COMPETITIVE GLOBAL ECONOMY, WITH A MISSION TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THE ACADEMY WILL WORK WITH ELEMENTARY AND HIGH SCHOOLS IN THE LOS ANGELES AREA TO AUGMENT THAT SCHOOL'S EXISTING PROGRAM THROUGH THE USE OF ITS STEM PROGRAMS. ALTHOUGH THE ACADEMY WILL HAVE A SET CURRICULUM AND ITS OWN VOLUNTEERS (AND EVENTUALLY, ITS OWN EMPLOYEES), THE ACADEMY WILL NOT HAVE ITS OWN STUDENT BODY. INSTEAD, IT WILL WORK WITH EXISTING SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE THEIR STUDENT BODIES WITH ACCESS TO INFORMATION AND EQUIPMENT THAT THEY WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE ABLE TO ACCESS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE ACADEMY WILL ONLY WORK WITH SCHOOLS WHICH ARE EITHER PUBLIC SCHOOLS OR PRIVATE SCHOOLS WHICH HAVE A NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY IN PLACE.THE ACADEMY CURRENTLY INTENDS TO IMPLEMENT ITS OPERATIONS AT TWO LOCATIONS. THE FIRST IS A 1000 SQUARE FOOT FACILITY LABORATORY HOUSED AT THE YESHIVA UNIVERSITY OF LOS ANGELES BOYS HIGH SCHOOL ("YESHIVA BOYS SCHOOL"), A NONPROFIT SCHOOL CLASSIFIED AS A PUBLIC CHARITY AND EXEMPT FROM TAXATION PURSUANT TO CODE SECTION 501(c)(3) (EIN: 42-1746735). CURRENTLY, THERE IS NO FORMAL ARRANGEMENT BETWEEN THE YESHIVA BOYS SCHOOL AND THE ACADEMY; HOWEVER, BECAUSE EACH IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION, THE GOVERNING BODIES OF EACH ORGANIZATION CAREFULLY OVERSEE THE RELATIONSHIP AND GUARANTEE THAT ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE AT "ARM'S LENGTH" AND AT FAIR MARKET VALUE.THE ACADEMY WILL ALSO OPERATE THROUGH THE GENESIS POD SCIENCE "LABORATORY ON WHEELS". THE GENESIS POD IS A 8' BY 32' FULLY EQUIPPED LABORATORY. THE ACADEMY HAS TWO STAFF MEMBERS (BOTH VOLUNTEERS) CURRENTLY OPERATING THE GENESIS LAB AND GENESIS POD AND EXPECTS TO HAVE 10-20 YEARLY STAFF MEMBERS TRAINED IN EDUCATION IMPLEMENTING STEM CURRICULA AT THE TWO GENESIS FACILITIES. THE STUDENTS PARTICIPATING WILL BE A DIVERSE MIX OF ETHNICITIES FROM MANY PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SCHOOLS FROM THE GREATER LOS ANGELES AND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREAS.IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT ALL ACTIVITIES WILL BE CONDUCTED WITHIN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
