My Project

As we say in our morning chant each day, STEM students are "talented, smart, and capable of success! We have dreams for the future, and we'll climb to reach those goals and dreams every day!"

A brilliantly talented and creative group of Kindergarten-5th grade actors, singers, dancers, artists, and builders are hard at work preparing for our production of Frozen!

As a STEM school, our students are scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians. During after school, they also get to shine as artists! We've got tons of imagination and energy- we just need some supplies to support our vision.

With your generous support, we can bring the story of Frozen to life! Supplies like a snow machine and a backdrop will give our set design team the tools they need. Costumes like Elsa and Anna's beautiful dresses, a suit for Prince Hans and a reindeer suit for Sven will help the characters come alive.
