STEM Group

STEM Group, formerly called STEM Club, was an IPoly interest group where students could learn more about STEM and STEM fields through activities, short lessons, and deep conversations.

History and Etymology
STEM Club was Mrs. Rivera's outreach program to help students expand their horizons in the STEM field. In early December of 2017, she appointed Joe Askharoun and Tristan Vuong to take charge of the club. For its first year, STEM Club was only be available for Sophomore students. STEM Club was disbanded due to lack of attendance after a Monday meeting on January 22, 2018.

In early September 2018, a month into the 2018-19 school year, Joe Askharoun approached Mrs. Rivera about starting up the club again, this time open to all grade levels and with a clear purpose. At this time, STEM Club changed to STEM Group to fit the new club status as Interest Group.

Purpose
To provide students with a safe environment for exploring and sharing ideas about and within STEM.
