August 20, 2024 – “Everything Brevard” has published a comprehensive article that captures the excitement of a new initiative that will extend to all 56 Brevard County public elementary schools for the 2024-25 school year. STEM teachers will be introduced to each of the schools.
Funded by the millage referendum approved by county voters, STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics – an extremely appropriate initiative for the children of rocket scientists and anyone who wants to keep up with the modern world.
The entire article is worth reading, but here are a few highlights:
Imagine classrooms filled with the enthusiastic chatter of young students, as they don safety goggles while diving into hands-on activities and experiments like elephant toothpaste. Students will explore grade-appropriate STEM concepts through interactive lessons designed to spark their curiosity and creativity. Each STEM teacher is equipped with engaging materials to meet state science standards, while also having the freedom to tailor lessons to fit their students’ unique needs.
As students grow older, their STEM journey continues at Brevard Public Schools with 111 Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs currently offered. The district plans to expand CTE over the next five years to include 17 additional programs.
Through the innovative STEM programs in Brevard Public Schools, students are not just preparing for their future careers — they are embarking on a thrilling journey of discovery that makes learning fun and impactful.
As the school bell rings for the 2024-2025 school year, Brevard County is not just shaping the skilled workforce of tomorrow; it is fostering a culture of curiosity and creativity that will inspire generations to come, propelling them toward the stars and beyond.
The article is filled with examples from around the county showing how students exposed to these skills not only learn the STEM skills but also find a wonder and enthusiasm for learning itself.
