This paper focuses on the impact and sustainability of the engineering club at Burncoat High School, one of five such programs implemented in Worcester public high schools to cultivate interest in engineering, mathematics, and science. It is our conclusion that this club fulfills an invaluable role to aspiring engineers and scientists in providing a plethora of information in technical career pursuits otherwise not available through typical curriculum, and as such the project should continue and be expanded.
