STEM Club Week One

Today we had our first meeting of the Cornelius Elementary STEM Club ever! The students got to be divided into their learning groups (organized by animal) and then got to visit many of our 7 learning stations. We had lots of volunteers helping to keep everyone organized and we are off to a fun start!

STEM = Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math

Our STEM club is a place where kids can come build their understanding and confidence in STEM subjects while playing and building relationships with students and mentors.

Our Club Objectives:
Promote excitement for STEM subjects through fun, creative, and playful exploration and learning opportunities that will compliment classroom education
Create students that can be confident leaders in STEM subjects
Connect experts who have worked or studied in STEM fields with students who can benefit from their experience and mentorship
Provide early exposure to STEM fields for all STEM Club students including groups currently under-represented in the STEM workforce
Foster a sense of community that expands beyond the walls of our school through building meaningful relationships with community partners
