Thirty-seven students from several city schools were on Friday awarded for their outstanding performances in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), the Department of Public Information (DPI) reported.
The programme is an accompaniment to the Ministry of Education’s after-school STEM Programme which sees almost 500 students benefitting from an extra hour of STEM-focused learning four days a week.
The students were drawn from Central High, St. Mary’s High, St. Rose’s High, Charlestown Secondary, Dolphin Secondary, St. John’s College, North Ruimveldt Multilateral and the VYC STEM Academy
The initiative is a collaboration between the Volunteer Youth Corps Incorporated, the Ministry of Education and ExxonMobil.
