The STEM High School Magnet Program provides students with real-world experiences grounded in both the STEM disciplines (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) as well as a whole-child approach to student learning and development. By holding empathy (often referred to as the "silent E" in STEM) as a core value, STEM becomes a human-centered experience based on building meaningful relationships.

Students can choose between our conventional STEM program (offered at North County & South River high schools) or our more focused STEM Bio-Medical program (offered exclusively at Glen Burnie High School). Both programs utilize project-based learning and leverage relationships with community partners to immerse students in authentic problems and real-world application. Students will refine their critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills to prepare them for leadership roles within their school and community.

All STEM students will actively participate in a variety of STEM requirements ranging from engaging coursework such as Community Challenge & Senior Capstone to an array of rich, authentic experiences such as job shadowing, internships, and summer of service. By creating an intellectually rigorous & truly demanding environment, our STEM programs produce confident minds who succeed in college classrooms and workplaces around the world.

STEM program at North County High School is part of our AACPS' Programs of Choice, the STEM Magnet Program offers an educational choice for academically able and motivated students interested in rigorous and relevant studies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The STEM Magnet High School at North County, serve students in grades 9-12 and act as a "school within a school." STEM students gain relevant, real-world, hands-on experience with cutting-edge technology and learn the importance of STEM subjects in all aspects of the world today. STEM is an all Honors and AP level program.
