STEM Connections Classes

Red Top Middle School earned an additional Connections allotment for the 2020-2021 school year.

We were excited for that new position to be a STEM-focused Connections class. Mr. James Conaway

joined the Miner Family and has made an immediate impact on our students and our STEM culture.

Mr. Conaway has set up his classroom as a hands-on STEM laboratory. Robots, computer components, 3-D printers, and so many other opportunities are at the students' fingertips. His class has quickly become a favorite for many of our students.

Mr. Conaway teaches 3 different courses all under the umbrella of the CTAE (Career, Technical, and Agricultural Education). These courses are under the Middle School Engineering and Technology cluster. The courses are listed below and the standards for each are linked.

• Exploring Engineering and Technology, Grade 6

• Invention and Innovation, Grade 7

• Technological Systems, Grade 8
