ABOUT
Carson Elementary STEAM Magnet
Through inquiry and dialogue, STEAM becomes our interdisciplinary approach to learning, where students engage in identifying real world problems as they ask questions and consider multiple perspectives. Students use the disciplines as a tool to problem-see and problem-solve. Students empathize, inquire, and develop innovative solutions through design thinking, and draw on their creativity to communicate their ideas and effect change.
