In 2019, St. Vincent de Paul Catholic School became the first Catholic school in the nation to be STEM-certified by the National Institute for STEM Education (NISE).

This was a rigorous certification program for our teachers to learn not only how to use technology in their classroom, but more importantly, how to engage our students to think creatively, collaborate with their peers and communicate.  STEM teaching at St. Vincent's can be used in all classrooms, not just science and math.  It is a way to engage and challenge our students to be resilient and adaptable 21st century learners. 


Tech in the classrooms:
We are blessed to have the technology, like 1:1 Chromebooks for 2nd-5th grade, a 3D printer, a computer lab, and mobile iPad carts.  Along with the hardware comes the responsibility to teach our students how to navigate digital enviornments responsibly and efficiently.
