Description

Haskell STEM Academy provides a rigorous and innovative learning experience centered on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. As the first STEM magnet middle school in its district, Haskell combines cross curricular instruction with hands on projects that encourage students to research, design, build, test, and improve their ideas.
