Youth Development

ARDUINO 101

Make It Possible ( Arduino 101) is a program developed by Intel with the purpose of giving our local youth the opportunity to learn and develop engineering and science skills through the use of technology. In addition to learning new skills, the program is a great opportunity for youth to engage with professional scientists and engineers and explore future careers.

LEGO ROBOTICS

Centro's Lego Robotics program gives students from undeserved backgrounds the opportunity to grapple with diverse and complex problems. The concept behind Lego Robotics promotes systems thinking, encourages collaboration, and exercises critical thinking. Our program emphasizes the importance of software & hardware, leadership, communication and writing abilities.

STEAM

Centro has provided educational after-school and summer programs for Latino youth in our community for decades. Our programs aim to supplement and reinforce what our youth learn in schools, while providing opportunities to explore new and exciting subjects.

Regional MESA Center

We partner with Portland State University’s MESA program, and serve as a west side regional center to coordinate 6 schools in Washington County. Our Education Director works with teachers from these schools to facilitate high quality STEM programming right where kids need it.
