Students from Chesterton Elementary spent a day at Montgomery Middle STEAM Magnet experiencing what it is like to be part of a STEAM magnet school. The fifth graders had the opportunity to meet with Principal Stephanie Brown who gave them a preview of the programs and experiences that await them at Montgomery. As part of their day, the Chesterton group toured the school stepping into the newly designed Siemen’s Genius Lab to watch as Montgomery engineers crafted designs using the new FUSE program. They also worked in the outdoor garden learning lab and spent time in the maker space building zip-lines that were later tested in the courtyard.The visit by Chesterton students is part of Montgomery Middle STEAM Magnet’s outreach to its neighborhood feeder schools throughout October and November. Fifth graders from Carson Elementary STEAM Magnet, Linda Vista STEAM Magnet School, Fletcher Elementary and Ross Elementary will visit the campus to experience the day as a STEAM middle school student.
At the end of each visit, fifth graders pose for a picture with Monty Wolf, Montgomery Middle STEAM Magnet’s school mascot.
