SMR PRESENTATION

SMR Program

WHAT IS THE SCIENCE, MATH AND ROBOTICS PROGRAM?

The Science, Math and Robotics Program is a program designed to enhance student learning by delivering science, math and robotics curriculum through a STEM focused lens; the program provides students with multiple opportunities to explore the courses through experiential activities as well as inquiry-based learning that meets their specific interests and needs.  Students excel when they learn through their passion and the SMR program allows for students to explore science, math and robotics through innovative and creative learning both inside and outside of the classroom. 

Students will take 3 SMR credits in grades 9-10 each year and take 1 SMR credit in grade 11.

APPLICATION

Students interested in attending one of the secondary Math, Science and Technology programs are not required to submit any supplementary application or information.  A completed Centralized Program Application is all that is required.  If the number of applicants exceeds the number of spaces available, all applicants will be eligible for the random selection process.
