New things are emerging in the Tech Lab!

What’s in Flux with technology this February ?

Technology is such a broad category, and this month we are focusing on what technology is.  We will be exploring all things technology, from using creating images using Turtle Blocks Java Script to creating living habitat in Power Point! All new things are happening in technology this month.
We will be starting our first round of tech Thursdays, where we will be offering FREE coding classes after school every other Thursdays; stay tuned for more details.  The Junior Tech Squad has shot their first introduction video, the blooper video will be up on
our new YouTube page Elementary Techs & Elementary Tech Jr later this week. Stem now has a Facebook page!! You can check here for all our updates, changes, videos and events about the school!
