Girls Advisory Board

The EngineerGirl website was developed with advice and recommendations from girls just like you!

In 2000–2001 a special Girls Advisory Board, with 15 members from 12 states and Canada, shared their ideas through online chats and a discussion board about what the EngineerGirl website should look like and what features it should include.  This group included:

• Lindsay, 7th grader at Goldenview Middle School in Anchorage, AK
• Jayme, 7th grader at McMeans Junior High School in Katy, TX
• Destini, 8th grader at Center for Applied Technology & Career Exploration in Rocky Mount, VA
• Kim, 8th grader at E.H. Markle Intermediate School in Hanover, PA
• Margaret, 6th grader at Miracle Beach/HomeLinks in Black Creek, British Columbia, Canada
• Megan, 7th grader at Pierce Middle School in Grosse Point, MI
• Clarissa, 8th grader at Brandenburg Middle School in Garland, TX
• Erin, 7th grader at Menands School in Menands, NY
• Cierra, 6th grader at Cypress Grove Intermediate in College Station, TX
• Kayleigh, 7th grader at Heritage Prep School in Orlando, FL
• Breanne, 7th grader at Twentynine Palms Junior High School in Twentynine Palms, CA
• Lindsay, 8th grader at Wickford Middle School in North Kingstown, RI
• Lucy, 7th grader at Blessed Sacrament School in Milwaukee, WI
• Alyssa, 6th grader at Marshall School in Duluth, MN
• Heather, 7th grader at Horace Mann Middle School in Charleston, WV

This redesigned colorful new website is the result of input from a greatly expanded advisory board of 135 girls in 28 states! They reviewed artwork and suggested new features to make the website useful for a 2012 audience.

The National Academy of Engineering thanks all the members of the Girls Advisory Board for their help and feedback. We also thank the many schools and teachers who supported the board in 2000 and 2012. These teachers worked with their students to ensure they had access to the online conferences and coordinated meeting times to fit into the school day.
