They do so many incredible things, it’s easy to take them for granted, but @STEMcha will always hold a special place in my heart. If you’re looking for an exemplar in innovative school models thriving under traditional structures, look no further than STEM School Chattanooga! – at Chattanooga, TN

Yesterday morning, PEF #STEMFellows visited @STEMcha where they learned about exemplars in education and engaged in a fun activity making original laser cut earrings as they pursued microcredentials in vector design, resilience, and laser cutting. Then, our @VWeLabs Specialists enganged in an awesome organized and facilitated by Dara Lacy at @LktValleyElem. Such a full, fun, amazing day! Thankful to collaborate with so many incredible educators who are redefining learning across our community.

Tonight, we celebrated @STEMcha and @redbankelem for earning Leading Lab certification. These two schools are beacons of excellence as they continue to redefine “possible” in school. Incredible leadership, dedicated teachers, a community of partners, it’s the perfect trifecta!
