Full STEAM Ahead

The Gilmore's vision is to be leaders in STEAM education, preparing and inspiring generations of learners to meet the challenges of the global society through the 3 R's, the 4 C's and the 5 E’s (reading, writing, arithmetic, Communication, critical thinking, collaboration, creativity & innovation, problem solving, engage, explore, explain, elaborate, evaluate). As a component of our Expanded Learning Time Grant we were awarded an expansion grant in 2015 to achieve our goals of:
* Increase student interest in STEAM areas
* Increase STEM achievement among all of Pre-K-12 students in order to prepare graduates to be civically and college and career ready
Through our partnerships, enrichment and technology and blended learning initiatives, we are working towards meeting these goals.
