STEM, which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, is a movement sweeping across Pennsylvania and the nation to grow and nurture creative students who are problem solvers, innovators, inventors, logical thinkers, and strong communicators – both oral and written. Rooted in an active inquiry and design process, STEM education spans the entire P-16 education continuum. It allows students to make sense of the world around them by applying concepts and ideas from STEM as well as other disciplines such as Language Arts and Social Studies. The overall goal of STEM: to stay competitive in today’s global economy.
