My Project

STEAM stands for science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics. Introducing this type of learning builds on innovation, creativity, problem-solving, teamwork, and critical thinking. These are skills our students need to be introduced to and be able to build so they can take them into the future. Many times, these types of learning get overlooked because of affordability and with your help, our students will no longer be overlooked.

The variety of STEM kits is much needed in our classroom to give our students the hands-on learning experience they need to succeed, while also teaching them skills that cannot be taught in a book.

Introducing these ways of learning will be the gateway to hopefully preparing our students to be innovative leaders of tomorrow.
