After a highly successful pilot program in Arizona, Legacy EV is launching its groundbreaking EV Innovators Club nationwide, offering middle school educators an exciting, hands-on way to bring electric vehicle (EV) technology.

Designed for grades 5-9, the EV Innovators Club gives students the opportunity to design, build, and race their own electric go-karts, all while engaging in STEM and career and technical education (CTE)-aligned learning. Following overwhelming demand, only 100 schools will be selected for the first national rollout starting in June 2025.

Legacy EV's plug-and-play program removes the barriers that often prevent schools from implementing cutting-edge STEM initiatives. With ready-to-teach lesson plans, hands-on teacher training, and a curriculum aligned with real-world EV industry standards, the EV Innovators Club makes it easy for educators—regardless of prior engineering experience—to introduce electric vehicle technology, sustainable energy concepts, and problem-solving skills.

"The enthusiasm we saw from students and teachers in our Arizona pilot was incredible," said Mavrick Knoles, Co-Founder and President of Legacy EV. "Schools across the country have been asking for this kind of hands-on STEM program, and we're excited to make it a reality."

Legacy EV is the market leader in EV adoption, providing fully integrated EV systems, certified technician training, and EV design consultation. By offering innovative education programs like the EV Innovators Club, Legacy EV is empowering the next generation of engineers, technicians, and innovators to drive the future of electric transportation.

Legacy EV's leadership team includes former STEM teachers and Teach for America (TFA) alumni who understand the challenges of bringing new technology into the classroom. Mavrick Knoles, along with curriculum experts Tom Santilli and Baily Soto, designed the EV Innovators Club to be practical, engaging, and fully supported so that any school—urban, rural, or suburban—can integrate EV education with confidence.

"The biggest challenge in introducing new STEM programs is making sure teachers feel equipped and supported," said Tom Santilli, Curriculum Developer for Legacy EV. "That's why we've designed the EV Innovators Club to be an all-in-one solution—giving teachers the tools they need to bring hands-on EV learning to life from day one."
