ESD 112’s STEM-TASTIC Summer Science Symposium was on August 14-16 at La Center High School. 192 science teachers from 27 different school districts gathered to learn about dozens of hot topics, like solar energy, populations and ecosystems, and phenology at the Ridgefield Wildlife Refuge. This event was offered at no cost to participants, and gave teachers the opportunity to earn all of the STEM clock hours they need for the entire year in just three days. It truly was the K-8 science teacher training of the year!
