STEM Day 2013 at Fickett Elementary

Fickett Elementary recently held STEM Day on May 3, 2013. The event was sponsored by the UPS Foundation.  During STEM Day, falculty and staff engaged the students at Fickett in a variety of STEM activities to allow them to preview some of the programs for the school’s pilot year.  Students in grades 3-5 participated in engineering design projects, and K-2 students attended an in-house field trip that allowed them to understand and learn more about Fickett’s robotics program. Students were also able to view technology and science district fair projects, learn about WeDo robotics and engineering in the elementary curriculum, tour STEM labs, and work with the upper grade students on engineering projects.
