In STEM education, Mathematics is a core subject because it is applied across Science, Technology, and Engineering fields.
Science: Uses math for data analysis (e.g., graphs, equations in physics and chemistry).
Technology: Programming relies on logic, algorithms, and binary numbers.
Engineering: Math models help design safe bridges, machines, and systems.
For SHS students, mathematics is not just a stand-alone subject—it is interconnected with all other STEM strands, building critical thinking and problem-solving skills essential for higher education and careers.
