STEM Program Course Description

Scientist and Engineers must first be able to pose a question and then figure a way to systematically answer it. At Dutch Fork High School's research class, students practice and then execute this basic scientic skill.

The course is designated for students with a natural curiosity and the drive and aptitude to seek answers to complex open ended questions. The success or failure is wholly dependent upon the individual.

Starting in January, 2008 students presented results at a series of conferences and science fairs, competing against the best science students from high schools throughout South Carolina. This class won over 25 awards at three competitions. Several students won multible awards, competing against students from magnet programs at public and privite high schools throughout the state.
