STEM Club

Welcome to Woodriver Elementary's morning STEM Club website.  The STEM Club is taught by Mrs. Campbell and Mr. Kinder.  The STEM Club meets every Tuesday morning, 8:00 to 9:15 AM.  The purpose of the STEM Club is to engage students in fun, hands-on learning, via a wide range of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (S.T.E.M.) activities.  Students work in collaborative groups to apply scientific principles to solve problems, explore, design, and create.  Please see the application for more details.

Announcements

Check out last year's STEM Club's pictures and videos of the students in action, on the bottom of this page.

Please be sure to give permission for your child's picture to be published on our website.  Thank you.
