At BC <strong>STEM</strong><br />

<strong>Innovation</strong> <strong>Center</strong>,<br />

Students Think<br />

Differently<br />

The <strong>Battle</strong> <strong>Creek</strong> <strong>STEM</strong> <strong>Innovation</strong><br />

<strong>Center</strong> (BC <strong>STEM</strong>, for short) is a new<br />

kind of middle school. At BC <strong>STEM</strong>, we<br />

see our students as innovators.<br />

We empower every innovator to ask questions<br />

and explore possibilities. Students research,<br />

collaborate, and learn new ways of thinking.<br />

Through our integrated curriculum, students<br />

experience every school subject through the<br />

lens of creative exploration. Our innovators<br />

develop critical thinking skills to help them<br />

create real solutions to the problems that matter<br />

to our students and to our community.<br />

WHAT IS <strong>STEM</strong>?<br />

<strong>STEM</strong> — which stands for science,<br />

technology, engineering and math — is<br />

our nation’s fastest-growing career field.<br />

Here at BCPS, we want to ensure that<br />

our students are well prepared for higher<br />

education and careers in these industries.<br />

Using an integrated <strong>STEM</strong> program,<br />

our students learn in a whole new way.<br />

Hands-on projects help them examine<br />

questions and problems through an<br />

engineering and technology lens in order<br />

to create innovative ideas and solutions.
