From the special offerings ensuring the students will continue to build upon the academic knowledge gained the 2015-2016 school year one of them is STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) that will focus on the 21st century components.  The 21st century focal components will be global awareness, financial literacy, civil literacy and health literacy.

In conjunction, the students will select members of their teams to be reporters and photographers.  They will create short video clips sharing what was done with end results.  Also take pictures to create power point presentations and other means to showcase skills and talents completed during the STEM special activities.
