STEM initiatives are important in preparing our scholars for the future and are paramount to creating successful schools. According to CNBC in 2018, "the US had three million STEM jobs left unfilled due to a lack of qualified workers. Science, technology, engineering and math are the industries that move our society forward and there are just not enough workers to fill the demand for these positions. This is why K-8 initiatives for STEM are so important." Creating opportunities for our students to participate in STEM will prepare them for high school, college, and careers. College and career-ready students are our goal as educators! Having the materials such as the filament for 3D Printers (which we already have from a previous grant) will give scholars an engaging opportunity to design, engineer, and create models. The process of 3D printing is useful for all project-based learning, especially in the fields of science and math. Thanks for your consideration in funding our 3D printing initiative at our Middle School!
