STEAM PD Series for SY23-24

In Partnership with SFUSD's Science Team!

We live in an interconnected world. What if we were encouraged to honor those connections and weave together an integrated tapestry with our students?

This year's STEAM PD series provides opportunities for us to:

Implement interdisciplinary curriculum: science, technology, engineering, art, math, and more!
Allow school-day learning to bloom after school into solutionary projects where students take action to build a better world.
Re-member ourselves with the natural world through safe, accessible, and culturally responsive experiences.
Pursue Climate Justice by prioritizing solutions for the Global South, BIPOC, and low income communities that are disproportionately impacted by climate change.
