STUDENT-LED AT ETHS · CONNECTED TO A MUCH BIGGER WORLD

Where students become leaders.

At ETHS, students learn engineering, teach what they know, serve their community, and discover that a skill learned after school can matter far beyond the clubroom.

WHAT THE MODEL LOOKS LIKE

Knowledge changes hands.

01

Learn something real.

Technology is the medium: computers, fabrication, robotics, coding, troubleshooting.

02

Teach it forward.

Learning becomes responsibility when another person is waiting for you to explain what you know.

03

Become useful to someone else.

That is where technical confidence starts turning into leadership.

COMING INTO THE CLUBROOM

Student Makers at Georgia Tech.

Future engineers from Student Makers at Georgia Tech will teach STEM courses virtually into the ETHS YTC Clubroom this school year.

THE CLUB HAS GENERATIONS

“It's like the club has generations. Leaders change, but the idea stays.”

FROM EVANSTON OUTWARD

A local club with a long reach.

The same teaching model works close to home and across distance. The point is not a list of places. The point is what happens to an ETHS student when someone else is depending on what they know.

AT HOME

Students serve Evanston.

Community technology, younger-student teaching, Camp Kuumba, and the developing Foster School relationship turn the club outward.

Community →
BEYOND EVANSTON

Students enter a teaching network.

University partners, virtual teaching, and relationships across YTC's wider network show students that their skills can travel.

SUPPORT THE CLUB

Evanston built this. Evanston keeps it moving.

Support puts tools on the bench, helps students teach in the community, and opens the next leadership experience.
