STEAM
Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math, commonly called STEAM, is an important part of our student’s program. Thanks to support from groups like Green Mouse Academy, Loggerhead MarineLife Center, the Stiles-Nicholson Brain Institute at Florida Atlantic University, and The EducationCenter, we are able provide cutting-edge access to the best in STEAM learning.
A child in the twentieth century has more than just one option to learn and develop. STEAM in after-care programs is vital because it fosters creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. It provides hands-on learning opportunities, sparking interest in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math, which can bridge educational gaps, enhance future career prospects, and empower children to overcome systemic disadvantages. While school provides certain learning benefits to a child, The Edna W. Runner Education Center goes a step beyond and ensures that our STEAM after-school activities are an essential part of mental and social growth.
