Admission to the Biomedical and Engineering Application-only Program is competitive, criteria-based program open to current Grade 8 students who live and/or attend middle school in the Downcounty Consortium (Argyle, Eastern, Lee, Loiederman, Newport Mill, Parkland, Silver Spring International, Sligo, Takoma Park). Each year, we select 30 students for each program. This forms a cohort of students who are together in their math, science and biomedical/engineering courses. Students must have taken Algebra 1 before or during 8th grade to qualify to apply.

Highly motivated gifted and talented students are encouraged to apply. Multiple criteria are used to evaluate candidates, including written statements from candidates, previous grades and coursework, test scores, and achievements. This is a rigorous STEM program where students will be challenged in math, science and Engineering or Biomedical science. Students with a deep passion for these topics and desire to be pushed in math and science should apply.

La admisión al Programa de Aplicación Biomédica e Ingeniería es un programa competitivo basado en criterios abierto a los estudiantes actuales de 8. ° grado que viven y / o asisten a la escuela secundaria en el Downcounty Consortium (Argyle, Eastern, Lee, Loiederman, Newport Mill, Parkland, Silver Spring International, Sligo, Takoma Park). Cada año, seleccionamos a 30 estudiantes para cada programa. Esto forma una cohorte de estudiantes que están juntos en sus cursos de matemáticas, ciencias y biomedicina / ingeniería. Los estudiantes deben haber tomado Álgebra 1 antes o durante el octavo grado para calificar para aplicar.
Ambos programas utilizan un plan de estudios escrito por Project Lead the Way (PLTW). PLTW desarrolla programas que involucran a los estudiantes usando habilidades de resolución de problemas y un plan de estudios relevante. Ambos programas brindan múltiples oportunidades para que los estudiantes colaboren y sean innovadores en la resolución de problemas actuales del mundo.
Se anima a los estudiantes superdotados y talentosos altamente motivados a postularse. Se utilizan varios criterios para evaluar a los candidatos, incluidas las recomendaciones de los maestros, las declaraciones escritas de los candidatos, las calificaciones anteriores y los trabajos de curso, las calificaciones de las pruebas y los logros. El proceso de selección comienza en el otoño y las cartas de invitación se envían a principios de la primavera. Este es un programa STEM riguroso donde los estudiantes serán desafiados en matemáticas, ciencias e ingeniería o ciencias biomédicas. Los estudiantes con una profunda pasión por estos temas y el deseo de ser impulsados en matemáticas y ciencias deben postularse.
