Additional Information

STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math. This innovative area of the curriculum combines subjects and skills (including critical and creative thinking) that are necessary for students to engage in in order to understand, improve and advance what is already known about the world. Developing a range of visual, thinking, and hands on skills through these subjects will provide the opportunity for students to better understand and prepare for the problems, solutions and unknown situations of the future. The careers that most of our students will have in the future are still undiscovered, however as educators we hold a responsibility to our students to prepare them and extend them for what could come by giving them the tools to creatively and systematically address problems from multiple angles using a range of strategies and techniques the subjects of STEAM can equip them with.
