Imagination fuels innovation! During STEM class, students will be engaged in questioning, problem solving, collaboration, & hands-on activities while they address real life issues. Through trial-and-error, they will answer complex questions, investigate global issues, and develop solutions for challenges and real world problems while applying the rigor of science, technology, engineering, and math content. Students will also practice becoming logical thinkers and effective communicators.

Growth Mindset in STEM
One of the key tenants of our district vision is to develop a “growth mindset” by creating a culture of continuous learning where students are challenged with a rigorous curriculum and have multiple opportunities to re-learn and re-assess on material until they have reached intended levels of mastery. Students should understand that failure is never final and that through determination, persistence, and practice they can improve themselves.
We aim to consistently follow up by providing personal attention to students with improvement opportunities. This allows for a classroom culture of re-teaching and reassessment to be established.
