STANDARD 4: Leaders engage a diverse network of community partners and stakeholders in order to support and sustain STEM programs and initiatives.
Campbell STEM seeks to nurture and preserve relationships with parents, our community, and business partners. At Campbell STEM we implement inquiry-based learning and the Engineer Design Process. Teachers invite experts into their classroom to support learning and provide real-world experiences. In addition, students are encouraged to attend lunch and learn to focus on things that interest them (Link to Document). We reach out to families and the community, inviting them to enhance STEM instruction and opportunities for students in all content areas, specials, and at all grade levels. Examples:
Parent Information Night
Science/STEM Fair
Field Trips
Lunch and Learn
Funding
Explorations
Assemblies
Student Council
School-Wide Video
Fun Rondy Challenge
Day of Caring

Campbell STEM staff have written many grants resulting in funding for the things listed above and many more. Grants have included creating an outdoor classroom in a local park for all Campbell students to access throughout the school year, gardening, harvesting, establishing two STEM labs, robotics, and many other STEM-focused opportunities for our students.
