I see the implementation of STEM as a tremendous opportunity for students to earn some type of credit toward graduation in grade levels lower than HS. Students might become more vested in their own education at lower grade levels if they have an opportunity to earn some type of credit that will be recognized as they move up. I envision graduations at the middle school and high school that recognize the students' achievements in STEAM. Check out this STEM Scouts website. The structure of earning awards toward STEM learning appears to be well thought out and tiered.- a model that we could adopt?
