On Monday, Dec. 8, 2025, 32 Warren City Schools’ 7th-grade girls representing the district’s four PK-8 buildings traveled to Rootstown with their school counselors to participate in the STEM Goes Red event sponsored by the American Heart Association.
This was the third year that Warren City Schools has sent 7th grade girls who have shown an interest in the medical and STEM fields.
The event is held at the Northeast Ohio Medical University, NEOMED, in Rootstown, OH. The goal of the program is to have girls explore the possibilities in STEM careers and for them to see their own potential in pursuing these careers.
