WELCOME TO THE 2023-24 STEMLAB PROGRAM 

We are excited to have you host the 2023-24 STEMLab Program live at your school. This year, we will be visiting your school twice and your students will have the opportunity to present their findings via zoom at the end of the year.

The M-DCPS Department of STEM Engagement chooses all STEMLab schools. If you are interested in getting on the list for next year,
please contact Dane Jaber at djaber@dadeschools.net

These videos are designed to introduce you and your students to the STEMLab and the Million Orchid Project. Have your students watch them before the first visit.
