Jack Abrams STEM School Accepting Applications

The Huntington School District’s Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School is now accepting applications for the 2015-16 academic year.

Currently with 281 students in grades three-six, the STEM school focuses on science, technology, engineering and math, as well as traditional elementary school subjects, including reading, writing, social studies, music, art and physical education.

From the district’s website:

Students currently enrolled in the school will maintain their seats in next year’s grade four, five and six classes. Students on the 2014/15 waiting list will be given priority for open seats in grades four, five and six, but must reapply for the 2015/16 school year by the February 1 deadline. If seats remain, students will be selected from this year’s applicant pool via lottery.

Interested parents and students will want to attend an informational meeting and facility tour on Monday, Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. in the Jack Abrams STEM Magnet School auditorium. The evening will include a question and answer session.
