Innovation Highlight at Holy Trinity Catholic Academy
"HTCA is excited to have partnered with Lockheed Martin to bring an exciting STEM program to students in PreK3 through 8th grade. The Generation Beyond Program is a first of its kind, national education program designed to inspire the next generation of innovators, explorers, inventors and pioneers in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. HTCA will have guest speakers from around the country, virtual and onsite field trips, and an online curriculum dedicated to the STEM and Generation Beyond program. The kick-off was on Friday, January 12th where partners from Lockheed Martin, parents, and faculty volunteered with conducting multiple hands on mini-sessions of science discovery. Various station stops included the solar system, the scientific method, fingerprints, magnets, DNA, dinosaurs, volcanoes, bridge building, states of matter, coding, and fun facts about different animals. The volunteers were members of the community who have experience and knowledge in their field; a medical doctor, a Sikorsky employee, and a science teacher at HTCA were among those who instructed the students about their topics of interest."
