Students in K-8th grade have experiences in STEAM classes (Technology, Art, Music, Media Center) for at least 1.5 - 5 hours a week, as well as a 21st Century science program that integrates with writing and reading skills. We have a STEAM specialist that plans and charts STEAM learning for the school, including artist residencies, field trips, and school-wide engineering challenges.

Boise-Eliot/Humboldt STEM Vision Statement:
To understand and foster the development of human communities and the environment, through the lens of Place, Race and Justice.

STEM education is active and has student-centered learning at its core. Through a focus on inquiry based instruction we seek to build a STEM program that focuses on integrated units of study that are place-based and relevant to our students and community. We will use experiential learning opportunities to ignite curiosity and provide an opportunity for reflection, challenging students’ initial beliefs and guiding them in the formation of deeper questions from multiple perspectives. And through this work, we hope to build a program that connects the classroom to stewardship empowering Boise-Eliot/Humboldt students to take action and educate others as they move along the path toward college and 21st century careers. 

The  is a regional collaboration of public and private organizations with a shared goal of transforming science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education for K-12 students.

Through the development and implementation of innovative STEM teaching and learning practices, all Oregon students will develop the necessary scientific literacy and technological knowledge they need to excel as citizens of our increasingly complex world.
