About Mount Vernon STEAM Academy
Mount Vernon STEAM Academy teaches every subject through a science, technology, engineering, arts and math lens within the Mount Vernon City School District. Our classes center on the 4Cs of critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity, and on the 5E cycle: engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate.
High school students can follow Project Lead the Way pathways in Biomedical Science, Computer Science and Engineering. In Biomedical Science, students use professional lab tools on cases such as identifying a skeleton through forensic anthropology and DNA analysis. Our Smart Scholar Early College High School Program, run with Concordia College, gives selected students academic and social-emotional support, a summer bridge program and early preparation for college.
We also offer problem-based learning, the ATLAS gifted and talented program, arts courses and career and technical education. We are a Title I school, and a parent liaison works directly with our families.
