School and Grades ServedThemeWinston Academy of Engineering (K-5)STEMJewett School of the Arts (K-8)STEAMDundee Ridge Academy ( K -8)International Baccalaureate Primary Years and Middle Years Programme and STEMLincoln Avenue Academy (K-12)International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme and STEMProject Description:
The Polk County, Florida, public school district is seeking to implement EduSTEM, Polks term for integrating Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics throughout the education day, the districts MSAP project for 2013-2016. The project will help satisfy demand voiced by the Polk Vision civic and business group to increase graduation and prepare the workforce with greater STEM skills. EduSTEM will support 2,782 magnet seats, 2,208 of them new. Polk is the nations 30th largest school district, with 94,000 students and nine magnets, eight operating successfully for 20 years and the last opened in 2011.
EduSTEM will implement the new attractor curricula in one new and one revised magnet school in January, 2014. Jewett School of the Arts in Winter Haven will become a K-8 magnet with a STEAM curriculum, infusing the existing arts theme with STEM activities to attract Hispanic students and alleviate Hispanic group isolation at two elementary and two middle schools.
Lincoln Avenue Academy in Lakeland will incorporate the Primary Years International Baccalaureate program to revise its existing STEM magnet curriculum for the global studies dimension to attract Hispanics from three elementary schools with Hispanic group isolation.
EduSTEM will open two new magnet schools in August, 2014 Winston Academy of Engineering in Lakeland will replicate a successful K-5 STEM program to replace a low-performing elementary school and reduce black minority group isolation.
Dundee Ridge Academy in Haines City will replace a middle school with Hispanic group isolation with a new K-8 magnet featuring STEM-infused Primary Years and Middle Years International Baccalaureate programs.
EduSTEM features a cadre of fulltime professional developers and a demonstration site at an outstanding, established magnet school in Polk. The trainers are documented experts in STEM infusion and will help the 200 faculty members at the four EduSTEM magnets integrate project-based engineering activities in teaching across subjects. They are also experienced to guide two of the new magnets to achieve official authorization for the International Baccalaureate preparation programs, Primary Years Programme and Middle Years Programme. Students will work heterogeneously in exploratory settingsin hydroponic and graphic arts labs, on computer-operated fabricators, with soils and water quality analysis probeware and softwareto internalize skills for mutual respect, cooperation, and love of learning.
