The lesson plans focus on native STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), as well as traditional ecological knowledge for native and non-native students to learn about the history, culture, and technologies of local tribes.

Pathmakers has partnered up with local tribal members who specialize in traditional customs and practices in hopes of passing down knowledge to younger generations.
