Science & STEM

Science at PTAA is hands-on, inquiry-driven, and deeply connected to technology, engineering, and math.

What is STEM?

STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math education.

  • S – Science
  • T – Technology
  • E – Engineering
  • M – Math

PTAA focuses on these areas together not only because the skills in each discipline are essential, but because these fields are deeply intertwined in how students learn most effectively — and they represent the fastest-growing areas of real-world careers.

STEM is an interdisciplinary, applied approach coupled with hands-on, project-based learning that prepares students to think critically and solve problems.
