Since returning to the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo in 2020, PISCES has strengthened its outreach and education efforts year after year, touching more students’ lives across Hawaiʻi. In 2025, our programs and activities reached record participation, reflecting our continuing commitment to making a difference in our community and inspiring youth in STEM studies and careers.

As we look back, we’re grateful for the progress and impact we’ve achieved together — and we’re excited for the opportunities ahead. We’ll continue working to encourage, educate, and uplift students statewide through meaningful STEM initiatives. Mahalo to our partners, friends, and ʻohana for standing with us in 2025 and for their continued laulima in the year to come.2025 PISCES outreach statistics: 5,500 K-12 students reached, 27 students and interns mentored, 25 outreach events attended, 3 NASA grant research partnerships.
