As the world around us shrinks and competition for high paying, highly technical jobs no longer exists solely within our nation’s boundaries, we must shift our past educational practices and seek a new paradigm for preparing our future scientists, engineers, and mathematicians. To this end, the St. Mary’s County Public School System has developed a rigorous and unique program of study emphasizing the core areas of mathematics and science with an infusion of technology and engineering.This STEM program is offered to all SMCPS students and housed at three schools: Lexington Park Elementary School, Spring Ridge Middle School, and Great Mills High School. The proximity of these three schools to the Patuxent River Naval Air Station and the Technology Corridor make them ideal sites.
