About STEM School™
Our program specifically designed for homeschooled students, ages 8-14, is offered in progressive, 8-week sessions in core topics such as biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, robotics, programming and more. Our curriculum is carefully designed to compliment state standards, but with our own, unique approach that emphasizes hands-on activities and "three dimensional" learning - giving students a more practical, relevant perspective of science. Our curriculum also covers all skill levels – so, with or without experience, students are sure to be challenged!

Biology Labs
Perfect for the future doctor or biologist, our Biology Labs introduce students to the living world, learning biological systems, both plant and animal, as well as human anatomy. We utilize microscopes and sample slides to explore various organisms at the microscopic level.Chemistry Labs
Chemistry Labs cover the atomic elements, their molecular structure and how different elements interact when mixed, heated or cooled. We utilize quality models and visual aids to demonstrate a variety of chemical principles. We also mix basic (safe) chemicals to show reactions, make crystals, and conduct other engaging experiments. We also teach students how to use quality microscopes in these workshops to examine various elements.Inventor Labs
In our Inventor Labs, we cover the principles of mechanical/civil engineering, including building, structures, lifting/moving objects, strength and material calculations, motion, the impact of environmental forces on structures. For those wanting a more creative outlet, we also offer workshops on the design and invention of prototypes and technology, utilizing our own Technology Lab equipment for these workshops.Physics Labs
Students learn the vast world of matter, energy, gravity, mechanics, electricity, sound, magnetism, atomic structure, as well as the nature of light/radiation, lasers and refraction. We cover a few significant physics discoveries in a fun way, such as Newton’s and Einstein’s theories. We use quality equipment in this series.Programming/Coding Labs
Students will learn about loops, conditional statements, variables, logic, events, constants, and animations which are the fundamentals of programming. This course is excellent for the development of vital abstract thinking and reasoning, as well as mathematical skills.Robotics Labs
We utilize a variety of platforms, including Lego, Vex, Makeblock, and Arduino-based systems, as well as their applicable software, exploring the boundless world of robotics and engineering. Combining intuitive drag-and-drop programming for beginner students, or text coding for more experienced students, this exploratory series encourages teamwork, friendship, and creativity from day one. No prior robotics or programming experience is required.
