Parish

STEM

ParishSTEM has been recognized as a model for the purposeful integration of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) components across a full PreK-12 program. Few schools nationally offer as rich an array of integrated STEM activities (interactive labs, activities, projects, design spaces and enrichment classes as experienced by all Parish students). 

Co-curricular STEM experiences are available via Parish Extend, our after school program, and Parish Summer; offerings frequently include but are not limited to robotics, coding, Minecraft, web and app design.  

I can’t imagine attending Parish without being a part of the STEM program.  The skills I have acquired can’t be attained in a traditional classroom.  This program is special.  It allowed me to lead, learn to fail and try again, be the truest version of myself and gain incredible confidence.whitney wheeler '17
