My Project

Our school is dedicated to fostering success in learning, service, and life for all students. As a full inclusion school with a diverse student body, we are committed to providing equitable opportunities for every student to thrive.

In response to the unique challenges faced by our teachers and students in a post-pandemic world, including academic gaps and social-emotional concerns, SSCPS recognizes the critical need to enhance hands-on learning experiences.

We believe that engaging students in practical, real-world applications of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) is essential for their academic growth and future success.

By focusing on STEAM education, we aim to empower students with the skills and knowledge they need to navigate an increasingly complex and technology-driven world. Through hands-on learning opportunities and meaningful real-world connections, we seek to make instruction more engaging and relevant for our students.

To achieve this goal, SSCPS will utilize innovative resources such as the LEGO Spike Prime platform to enhance student engagement and facilitate deeper learning experiences. By integrating LEGO Spike Prime into our curriculum, we can provide students with interactive and hands-on activities that foster creativity, problem-solving skills, and collaboration.

With your support, SSCPS will continue to innovate and expand our STEAM programs, ensuring that every student has access to high-quality education that prepares them for success in school, career, and life. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of our students and build a brighter future for our community.
