STEM 8 focuses on exposing our students to as much new technology concepts as we can. Students will explore several different technology concepts in: Digital Literacy,
Computer Science, Engineering, 3-D Modeling, 3-D Printing, Lasercutting, Design, Email etiquette, Typing, problem solving and much more. The goal of the middle school STEM program is to allow
students to explore their varied interest in technology and prepare them for the slate of high school electives as well as give them invaluable technological and critical thinking skills that can be
used in school and other parts of their lives. Technology is not just about computers, technology are tools we create to solve human problems. With this framing we examine technology, its impacts and how our
world is shaped by it. Students will leave STEM with an appreciation for the world around them and perhaps a newfound interest / greater appreciation for technology.
