​Who are we? We are Women of Wisdom (W.O.W)

The  team m​embers!

School-
  James A. Foshay Junior High School opened February, 1925. Foshay strived to become a California Distinguished School in October, 1995. The school wrote the proposal in December 1995 and in 1996 Foshay received the honor of being named as a California Distinguished School. Later on, Foshay became a Learning Center, which consists of grades K-12.
 
​  Foshay is an International Baccalaureate school. Our IB Learner profile consists of Inquires, Thinkers, Risk-Takers, Knowlegeable, Balanced, Communicator, Principled, Open Minded, Caring, and Reflective. Get more information about our school at   www.foshaylc.org

​ Foshay Learning Center needs to introduce more girls into STEM. Why? We live with students that have the impression that STEM and education itself isn't necessary. We would like to have more representation with girls in STEM and to be able to have an easier way to get college access.
