A $10,000 grant from the Gelfand Family Charitable Trust will allow St. Stephen’s Armenian Elementary School to take part in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) Initiative, PanARMENIAN.net reports.

The school will use the money to create a four-year plan to make science, technology, engineering and math part of the school's curriculum.

“Our mission will be to increase the focus and emphasis on science, technology, engineering, and math throughout our school, in order to create and support a deep and sustainable culture of inquiry-based teaching and learning that excites and inspires our students,” Principal Houry Boyamian, told PanARMENIAN.net.

The school can apply to receive $10,000 a year for four years to implement the plan.
