Full Day Kindergarten and school aged students will follow the Next Generation Science Standards. Highly qualified teachers will help prepare your child in S.T.E.M. based subjects. Through scientific inquiry and experimentation, children will be challenged to understand HOW and WHY science, engineering and technology work, and HOW STEM is part of our day to day activities from a plate that you eat from to the car you drive.
STEM Academy for Young Kids prides themselves on their unique approach to teaching your child. Here at STEM, we understand every child learns differently, so we incorporate different approaches into our teaching. Our curriculum, while accelerated, is very hands on so our students learn while doing. We believe in our students reaching their full potential and moving at a speed that encourages learning. Our students are exposed to many different topics and activities such as our STEM theme of the month, robotics, computer programming, chess, karate, yoga, and much more!
