STEM

Have you always had a knack for dreaming up inventions of your own, for tinkering, for fixing things?  Are you sparked by how things work, how you could make them work better, longer, faster?  Do you wonder about the natural world, how mathematical ideas fit into everything, how you could convince a computer to model the how and why of human brain activity?
 
If this sounds like you, you may be interested in the new STEM (Science-Technology-Engineering-Math) Certificate Program at Littleton High School!
 
Littleton High School is pleased to offer students who complete an approved set of coursework and extra-curricular high school experiences in STEM areas the opportunity to receive STEM Certification upon graduation. To be awarded certification, students will need to complete coursework beyond minimum graduation requirements and meet certain GPA requirements.
 
 
Intriguing coursework, opportunities to be creative, eye-opening off-campus experiences. Open and available to any student who wants a challenge and is willing to invest in his/her own future, beginning now.  That's the STEM Certificate Program at Littleton.

Why STEM?

Why Immerse Yourself In Science-Technology-Engineering-Math?

STEM subjects are at the heart of a surprisingly wide variety of jobs and professions...

  • Not only areas like chemical engineering...but also furniture making.
  • Not only biological research... but also automotive technology.
  • Not only rocket science...but also crime science and fire science.

 

STEM learning is not only exciting and interesting, and offers terrific career potential, but it’s also important to the continued advancement of our country and our society as a whole. Experts say that technological innovation accounted for almost half of U.S. economic growth over the past 50 years, and almost all of the 30 fastest-growing occupations in the next decade will require at least some background in STEM (changetheequation.org).

Studying these subjects in high school and beyond will give you the skills you need to take part in building the world of our future. An important part of the LHS Stem program is the development of each student’s complete high school plan which will provide extensive opportunity to explore options for post-secondary education and career choices.
