"The CSTEM program and the Sea Turtle Robotics Challenge organized by Dr. Flowers in Houston is a model that should be duplicated everywhere to ensure that under served youth are equipped to meet the increasing demand for engineers, scientist, and inventors"
Russell Simmons

"CSTEM has allowed my twelve year old to find a place to fit in. Robotics is teaching him how to take his love for creating things, share them with a group and maybe have part of his idea become a reality."
Gail St. Pierre, Parent, West Briar Middle School

"It is through the work of organizations such as yours that innercity school children get the opportunity to learn and practice science, mathematics, and technology, effectively shortening the technology divide that exist between the haves and the havenots."

"Thank you for everything. Without your help we would not have ever experienced FIRST robotics."
Gregory Pace, Former Student, Jack Yates High School

"One of the most important things I learned was teamwork and getting along with each other. Responsibility was another important thing I learned. If you didn't do your work you would let the team down. Everyone's hard work would go to waste if your job was something very important to the robot and you didn't do it."
Juan Martinez, Student, Hogg Middle School

"It is through the good works of such organizations as CSTEM that we are able to add the rigor and relevance to the classroom to excite underrepresented children about careers in the energy industry."
Frazier Wilson, Business Partner, Shell

"I commend Dr. Reagan Flowers and CSTEM for their efforts in the community, for working to close achievement gaps in math and science for youth Pre K12. Schlumberger looks forward to a long partnership with CSTEM. Thank you to CSTEM for your vision and the impact you are having with teaching and learning."
Paula McCann Harris, Business Partner, Schlumberger

"The support and services provided by CSTEM aims at improving America's competitiveness in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics by reaching underrepresented students and engaging them in fun and exciting learning experiences. With continued funding support, CSTEM can continue to sustain its mission and expand its outreach to have a greater impact with teaching and learning."
Sylvester Turner, Speaker Pro Tem, State Representative

CSTEM does extraordinary work to motivate, encourage, and expose students and teachers to STEM Programming."
