Hands-on EV education initiative expands to middle schoolers nationwide

Educators can introduce EV technology, sustainable energy concepts, and problem-solving skills into their classrooms

Gilbert, Ariz.—After a successful pilot program in Arizona, Legacy EV is launching its EV Innovators Club nationwide, offering middle school educators a hands-on way to bring electric vehicle (EV) technology into their classrooms.

Designed for grades 5-9, the program gives students the opportunity to design, build, and race their own electric go-karts while engaging in STEM and career and technical education (CTE)-aligned learning.

One hundred schools will be selected for the first national rollout starting in June, with a waitlist now open for additional schools.

A STEM Solution for Classrooms

The plug-and-play program removes barriers that often prevent schools from implementing new STEM initiatives, stated Legacy EV. With ready-to-teach lesson plans, hands-on teacher training, and a curriculum aligned with real-world EV industry standards, the EV Innovators Club makes it easy for educators—regardless of prior engineering experience—to introduce electric vehicle technology, sustainable energy concepts, and problem-solving skills into their classrooms.
