Pendergast Elementary School District

Amberlea Elementary is proud to partner with VentureLab, an organization dedicated for over a decade to empowering young minds with the skills, creativity, and confidence to innovate and lead. This year, VentureLab supported Amberlea in accelerating our Career and Entrepreneurship Academy, culminating in an exciting achievement:

VentureLab Director of Education and Training, Scott Mann, has awarded Amberlea ES a full scholarship valued at $4,000 for the SY25 - 26 Idea to Pitch Program license.

Both students and teachers have thoroughly enjoyed the VentureLab program. It has proven to be not only engaging and fun, but also highly feasible for classrooms - making entrepreneurial thinking accessible and exciting for everyone.

Through its nationally recognized programs, VentureLab has helped thousands of students transform ideas into real-world solutions while boosting confidence, curiosity, and leadership skills. Their continued commitment to expanding access - especially for girls and historically marginalized students - aligns powerfully with Amberlea’s mission.

This partnership opens the door for our students to build essential entrepreneurial skills such as creativity, critical thinking, and resilience. We’re excited for the innovative learning experiences ahead and grateful to Scott Mann and VentureLab for investing in our students’ futures.
