STEAM

The STEAM Lab is a hands-on, project-based, self-directed learning environment. Students work collaboratively with a partner, choose a challenge, and complete their challenge. 

Our STEAM lab fundamentals are: collaboration, communication, creativity, problem solving, self-direction, and self-reflection. These are twenty-first-century skills that students will use in all areas of their lives.
