The STEM Program provides opportunities for students to enhance their skills in science, technology, engineering, and math. By means of this program, students have access to learning tools that would otherwise not be available in the classroom. STEM also opens the door for students to learn specific skills and to excel in areas of personal interest. Our students find the different avenues STEM offers to be enjoyable and challenging.
