PSAC students urge more STEM and project-based learning after Tennessee site visit
Summary
Two members of Meridian's Principal Student Advisory Council reported on a high school site visit to Mt. Pleasant, Tenn., and said the experience prompted ideas for expanding STEM and project-based learning at SVHS.
Aurora Lagerhausen and Trevor Miller, members of the Principal Student Advisory Council, told the board they visited a high school in Mt. Pleasant, Tenn., and compared that school to SVHS. They described differences in size but similarity in student demographics and said the trip highlighted STEM programs and project-based learning models the district could explore.
"The visit has the team thinking about the possibilities that could be implemented at SVHS," the students said. Board members asked follow-up questions and the presentation was noted in the minutes as a prompt for future consideration of program changes or pilots.
