STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Education, Arts and Mathematics. Learn where you can find resources to support your child’s STEAM skills through local classes, online resources, and more! Unlike “STEM,” STEAM, includes the arts as many educators view creativity as a critical skill for 21st century thinkers and doers!

“STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking. The end results are students who take thoughtful risks, engage in experiential learning, persist in problem-solving, embrace collaboration, and work through the creative process. These are the innovators, educators, leaders, and learners of the 21st century!” - Educationcloset.com
