Plano STEM Academy Presentation »

Program: Plano STEM Academy

A unique space was needed to provide a new option for Plano ISD high school students, which would incorporate a STEAM curriculum (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) into a non-traditional learning environment. To meet this challenge, Plano ISD chose to repurpose an existing office building. This 71,000-square-foot, three-story facility houses up to 600 students and is designed to be a completely open environment, where learning is collaborative and immersive. With the exception of three science labs and a dedicated computer modeling space, there are no confined spaces or dedicated classrooms.

Presenters:
Trey Laird, Principal, Stantec
