A new position is available in the Heyworth school district as it entails working with those students who have been high achieving.

 

The Heyworth school district feels confident in helping those students who might be underachieving, making sure those students have the right attention and programs available.

 

According to Lisa Taylor, superintendent of the Heyworth school district, it was teachers who got the idea of bringing back the STEM/STEAM program.

 

 

 

Taylor explains the program has students guide it, allowing the students to come up with a real-world problem that they look to solve.  The students then use the technology within the program to get hands-on experience solving the issue.  

 

 A new lab is being built with advanced technology including 3D printers and tables that raise and lower...

 

 

 

The new program will require a special teacher specifically for the STEM classroom, as trying to get kids to think outside of the box is the main goal for the district.

 

 

 

The STEM/STEAM program is scheduled to begin at the beginning of next school year.
