Experience the World of STEM at MTS
Marin Mommies presents a sponsored shout-article from Mount Tamalpais School in Mill Valley.
Come explore science, technology, engineering, and math at Mount Tamalpais School’s STEM admissions event on Saturday, January 27, from 9:00-11:30 am. Prospective families rotate through three different class mini-sessions taught by MTS faculty to experience a range of hands-on projects in our K-8 STEM curriculum. All ages are welcome to attend.
Mount Tamalpais School, a K-8 independent school in Mill Valley, is uniquely designed to engage even our youngest learners in STEM classes every day. The STEM faculty grows with our students over the years as they move through a hands-on, materials-based, and rigorous curriculum that focuses on process and design.
Students are actively engaged in iterating, designing, estimating, building, and trying again as they work creatively to solve authentic problems and challenges. MTS students gain confidence designing and redesigning prototypes to realize their visions, using a variety of materials and tools. Flexible thinking, collaboration, and creative solutions are encouraged as students focus on the process and learn to communicate effectively with one another.
