Where Leaders Think and Thinkers Lead
The Chief Science Officers (CSO) program at Clare High School empowers students to become STEM ambassadors and changemakers in their school and community. CSOs are embedded within our student network and equipped with the tools to lead, connect, and advocate for STEM engagement at all levels.
CSOs don't just participate in STEM—they lead it. These student leaders amplify youth voice, represent their peers in STEM conversations, organize events, and inspire a culture of innovation across Clare Schools. From connecting with professionals to mentoring younger students, CSOs are the bridge between students and the STEM future.
