Scientific Research and Design students will participate in project based learning by researching, designing, and building interactive music stations for special needs students at Allen High School. Students will be tasked with learning to accommodate for special needs as well as the physics of music, circuitry, electronics, safety and design.

Students will collaborate to create a community garden for the school. This garden allows students to not only learn about healthy eating and nature, but also apply math and geography skills when mapping and designing the garden. 

Students will participate in weekly STEAM activities that encourage creativity, critical thinking, and innovation. This can help prepare them to confront and solve the challenges in our constantly changing world. 

The weekly STEAM Club for 5th and 6th graders helps them practice critical thinking, creativity, and problem solving. This opportunity for collaboration can prepare students to further their technology experience and research. 

Teachers from the Heard Museum will provide students with a fun and educational opportunity to experience live animals and activities. Students will learn about related animal concepts like life cycles and food webs.
