The Benefits of STEM Programming

STEM education at Rush City High School provides students with critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative skills essential for success in the 21st century. Our programs encourage students to explore real-world applications, pursue their interests, and develop a passion for learning.

Recognizing the importance of STEM education, we prioritized the addition of a dedicated STEM Teacher to our team in the 2023-2024 school year. This decision reflects our commitment to enhancing our STEM curriculum and meeting the growing needs of our students. Our STEM programming continues to expand, offering more opportunities for students to explore their interests and prepare for future careers in a rapidly evolving world. Engineering Essentials I & II have been added to the course offerings for the 2024-2025 school years, demonstrating our district's commitment to enhancing STEM programming at RCHS.
