My Project

"Who are we? We are STEM!" This is how our students begin each morning- chanting, dancing, and enthusiastically affirming our belief that we can accomplish anything we decide to work hard towards! We know that to accomplish great things, we must not only act but also dream! At our school, we know that all kids are capable of success, no exceptions!

As the only public STEM school in Manhattan, our students are scientists, technologists, engineers, and mathematicians who dream of someday changing the world.

Our amazing recess coach, leads recess games that support our students' physical and social-emotional wellbeing. The games are structured around our 4 Be's - Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Kind, Be Safe - and aim to strengthen qualities like teamwork, perseverance, and grit. These giant versions of our favorite games will help make recess even more fun and engaging for our kids.
