The STEAM program was developed by Richmond Hill High School teachers to integrate and collaborate between disciplines including Science, Math, Computers, Arts, and Technology.  After recognizing the commonality within our curriculums and goal of shaping 21^st century learners, we developed a program that provides students with hands-on opportunities, real-life challenges, and project based learning that incorporates training and skills students utilize beyond the boundary of the classroom walls. 

Since its beginning, The RHHS STEAM program has evolved and has been shaped by the different teachers instructing the program.  The current model for grade 9 STEAM is the integration of math and science curriculums, and promotion of technology and design skills to provide a well-rounded experience.  In grade 10, students focus on entrepreneurship and computer science as they develop marketing and digital skills as they develop an app.  

Entry into the STEAM program for both Grade 9 and 10 students is through an application process. 

This program allows students to experience a more real-world environment where a wide array of skills and broad knowledge are used. This is in contrast to teaching subject areas in isolation where it might be more difficult for students to see the interconnectedness of what they are learning.
