Steam into SCA

STEAM the Program:

STEAM into SCA is an all-in-one program at St. Catharine Academy that combines academic course work in Math and English while exploring the arts and sciences, such as robotics, digital art, and dance. Every year our rising 6th, 7th & 8th graders make new friends as they enjoy team activities such as athletics, puzzle making, and games.

By coming to STEAM into SCA, girls experience firsthand learning and problem-solving skills with girls their own age. She will have the opportunity to break away from the traditional, coed classroom structure to identify her strengths and build confidence in her skills and beliefs.

Writing:

Working collaboratively and independently, students will focus on writing improvements such as grammar and proper, concise diction. Students will practice both academic writing styles that are required in high school as well as given opportunities to express themselves with creative opportunities.
