Welcome

Benton STEM Elementary focuses on STEM Education and providing students with the skills needed for whatever career they hope to enter after school. This means your child will have more opportunities for hands-on learning and exploration. Our goal is to connect what they are learning to careers and jobs in the real world so they understand the importance of the things they are learning. We also have more opportunities for them to use their reading, writing, and math skills to help them learn science, engineering, and mathematics concepts.

I am the STEAM Specialist for the district which means I get to work with every classroom on natural integration of all content areas during the school day. My main role is to support classroom teachers in the areas of: STEM Education, integration, place or project based learning. In addition, I write grants and collaborate with the community to build strong relationships between our STEAM programs and the Columbia community.
