STEAM Saturdays is an out-of-school
program designed to engage students in Science,
Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math.
The goal is to inspire and encourage interest within our future
generations in STEAM related skills and occupations by developing their 21st
century skills such as advanced problem solving, collaboration and teamwork,
creativity and imagination, and critical thinking.
Each Saturday session will engage
students in a different STEAM topic: engineering and design thinking, robotics
and computer coding, and making (creativity, invention, production). Students
will be fully engaged in hands-on, interactive learning with the
classrooms facilitated by Pennsylvania-certified teachers.
