Summer application 

2025 STEM INSTITUTE INFORMATION 

For summer 2025, our theme is Exploring our Physical and Digital Environments. We will focus on the connections between our physical and digital worlds. Scholars will engage in STEM learning experiences focused on Environment and Earth Sciences and Cybersecurity. Scholars will engage in activities exploring ecosystem dynamics, water quality and access to drinkable water, renewable energy, and understanding computer networks and online security and data protection. Scholars will also examine what being an environmentally friendly and digital citizen means. Learning experiences are differentiated based on scholar’s grade levels. 

 

Scholars will focus on journaling to build analytical and reflective literacy skills. Scholar’s journaling will culminate with the design and production of an issue of BoldlyU magazine to share with parents/caregivers and the community. We will continue our focus on health and financial wellness. Scholars will have an opportunity to explore a variety of medical fields and careers that help support our physical and mental well-being and explore how computational thinking is utilized in these fields. Scholars will participate in a financial simulation and weekly mindfulness and creativity sessions such as painting and other physical fitness sessions such as dance.
