Committed to Making a Difference
Chrysalis Development Group is committed to providing affordable, stimulating STEAM programming and opportunities to elementary school, middle school and high school students through interesting, fun, and engaging events as well as supporting them academically through after-school classes in math and programming.
Although Northern Virginia is rich in diversity, data shows that equity is still an issue and consistent challenge in the education of the youth in our region. While the problem is much more nuanced in larger school systems such as Fairfax and Arlington, it is much more pronounced in a smaller school system with a single high school such as Alexandria. To address this disparity, Chrysalis intends to get students interested and passionate about STEM early, help them academically, and give them the confidence to pursue it.
