MAPS programming incorporates science, technology, engineering, the arts and math (STEAM) in free-of-charge after-school/summer instruction which assists young people achieve tangible public success and impressive personal growth. Through courses in Film, Design, Music, Technology, and Entrepreneurship, MAPS students learn self-confidence, leadership and empathy for others, creating a strong foundation for the success of all their future endeavors. The goal of MAPS Works is to connect students to media arts and engage them in the community. MAPS partners with four Title 1 schools in Ravalli County. Over 60% of our students qualify for free and reduced lunch. Students that attend quality after school programming make significant improvements socially and academically, resulting in improved grades and positive community engagement. Of note, 85% of MAPS students continue on to college, compared to the 60% average of the Bitterroot Valley.
