My Project

As a STEM-focused school, our goal is to introduce our students to diverse pathways within the STEM fields that lead to meaningful careers. Equipping our students with essential tools such as headphones and computer mice is instrumental in facilitating their exploration of various technological endeavors. These devices empower students to engage in activities ranging from coding and composing music to broadcasting and creating narrated videos.

By providing students with the necessary technology, we enable them to work on individual aspects of technological projects, fostering their creativity, problem-solving skills, and technical proficiency.

These hands-on learning experiences are fundamental to our school's immersion in STEM pathways and play a pivotal role in preparing our students for future success in STEM-related careers.
