which means most of our daily activities will be
built on incorporated lessons including science,
technology, engineering, art, and math. This
approach will support students as they develop
their critical thinking skills and prepare to be
21st Century, Global Citizens.

thinking skills.
There is currently a shortage of software developers in the job
