IRS990/Desc0SCMSA is a new public STEM-based charter school. 2014-2015 was our first year of operation. During our first year of operation, we served K-4th grade. We added 5th grade for our second year of operation because we wanted to maintain our 4th grade families at our school. We believe in Project Based Learning at our school. In all of our cross curricular activities the students will be doing hands-on minds-on learning. They will be creating and learning by doing projects. Students will be using critical thinking skills by using their own creativity and innovation. By having the students learn through their own creativity this will drive intrinsic and extrinsic learning. With a maximum enrollment of 216 students we are able to maintain small class sizes of 15-19 students per class. SCMSA uses a balanced academic program that is unique to our students and aligned with Minnesota state standards to teach reading, math, science social studies in kindergarten through grade 4. Included in this program are components for guided reading, read aloud, shared reading, and independent reading. To implement, SCMSA has a library with a variety of fiction and nonfiction reading materials, covering a wide range of reading levels including math and science topics. Each classroom also has their own reading center, where students can enjoy books and other resources selected by their classroom teacher. The students will learn reading, spelling, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills. They will be focused on learning Science, Technology, Engineering and Math in our STEM program. They will be exposed to the arts and culture, physical education and citizenship. We believe in Project Based Learning at our school. In all of our cross curricular activities the students will be doing hands-on minds-on learning. They will be creating and learning by doing projects.
