"We must tell young people that understanding STEM means they can change the world. This is the language of a new generation, and we must learn to speak it."

Tomorrow morning Nipmuc will welcome representatives from a wide range of STEM careers and colleges to the school to meet with students in grades 8 - 12. We're looking forward to introducing our students to a wide range of opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Our professional representatives will meet with students to answer their questions and get them excited about the potential of STEM.
In preparation for the fair, this afternoon all of the students in the Nipmuc STEM Scholars Program participated in a two-hour interviewing workshop provided by Linda Greco - a recruiter and campus relations expert from EMC.
Tomorrow our students in the STEM program will have the chance to put their skills to the test in a series of mock interviews with some of our STEM professionals. In addition, Dr. Liz Ryder from WPI is joining approximately 80 students taking Advanced Placement Biology, Statistics, and/or Computer Science to introduce them to the field of bioinformatics.
We're also excited to welcome our eighth graders to Nipmuc to participate in the fair and hear from our students about STEM learning opportunities at our school.
It's sure to be an exciting day! Feel free to review the program below in order to view the representatives who will be attending the fair.
