STEM

Why is STEM a career cluster and an Academy at PCHS. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. In a couple of years almost our whole plant will be around Technology, just opening a door will require a way of opening it without any strength. Technology is also important because it will keep someone alive if they are in a hospital, technology also will help students that had cancer because their writting can be atrcious. Technology can also help people with wheelchairs get up floors in malls and airports with elevators.
