<div dir="ltr">Sorry to sound uneducated, but can anyone on the list serve give me a brief idea of the STEM certification process and what, if certified, what it means in terms of every day instruction? For example, will there be specific STEM related programs that are ability based or voluntary, or is it schoolwide instruction. In a nutshell, how does it work, and why is it good, in broad strokes.

<p>Myself and two other parents were invited to sit in on the first
monthly meeting of the school year regarding Sagamore's pursuit of
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) certification. I
was very impressed with what I saw, and you can get an impression
of what some of it is about by viewing the attached pdf scan of
the first few pages handed out at the meeting. Hat's off to Ms.
Miller and all the teachers putting in so much time and effort to
make Sagamore, "be more", in this way.<br>
