Make sure to complete your summer requirements!
As part of our continued commitment to preparing students with essential STEM-BMAH skills, all rising 10th grade students are required to complete the Microsoft Excel Summer Program. This program builds foundational data and problem-solving skills that students will use throughout 10th grade and beyond. Students will continue using Excel during 10th grade and may have the opportunity to earn a Microsoft Excel certification. This industry-recognized credential can support college, internship, and career opportunities.
