STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math education. We focus on these areas together not only because the skills and knowledge in each discipline are essential for student success, but also because these fields are deeply intertwined in the real world and in how students learn most effectively.
Who can attend STEM?
STEM is program at Yearling Middle School that is funded through a grant providing educational opportunities for our migrant students. Students are recommended by teachers and the migrant advocate. Those students then must complete required paperwork to become part of the STEM Academy.
