Unleashing possibilities for students through programs and conferences.

Students learn best when they ignite their brains around their passions and unleash the possibilities. Each year, Resource coordinates a series of events to engage, equip, and empower students beyond the classroom.

From Knowledge Bowl and the Central Minnesota Regional Spelling Bee to Project Earth, Resource works behind-the-scenes on many of the educational enrichment programs that you see in the news.
