Some parents have asked us what is STEM? The definition of STEM is science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, considered as a group of academic or career fields (according to dictionary.com). It is also known as STEAM as art was added to the acronym later on!
Our goal is to prepare children for STEM majors (in college) like Medical, Mechanical Engineering, Information Systems, and much more! We help educate the future great men and women in STEM that continue on to make great advances in technology, science, and more!
Mealtime and Snacks:
For Camp weeks we ask that students bring a bagged lunch for mealtime. To make sure we do not have any cross contamination for students who may be sensitive to nuts we ask that bagged lunches do not include any nut-based product, including Peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches.
