This is a fantastic school, and as a student that attends the school(writing this from my mother's email). You are exposed to a lot of things that you would not learn at a regular middle school. Such as, coding engineering and technology, vex engineering and building, advanced mathematics, science, and reading. At this school, you can also get into depth with film and theatre. Hope I see your kid in my homeroom next year!-A student who attends The STEM academy @ bartlett. Close Quote
