Today on November 8th is Stem/Steam Day!

Science, Technology, Engineering, (Art), and Mathematics is a broad term used to group together these academic disciplines. The STEM approach to education fosters creativity and divergent thinking alongside fundamental disciplines. It motivates and inspires young people to generate new technologies and ideas.
