Earlier this month, the Heatherwood Educational Advisory Team proudly shared its proposal to launch a new Environmental STEAM program at the school, beginning in the 2025-26 school year, to the BVSD Board of Education. The new program will teach Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) principles with a focus on environmental literacy, which is inspired by nature.
BVSD is thrilled to offer a new diploma endorsement to sustainability-minded BVSD students beginning this year. The Seal of Climate Literacy is a new high school diploma endorsement that connects educational knowledge with the real challenges and opportunities that climate change brings to each of our communities. It offers students a chance to engage directly with issues that impact their local environment and communities through coursework and hands-on learning.
A little more than a quarter of the $42 Million invested in school construction projects this summer, was invested in new construction and renovations aimed at expanding and enhancing learning spaces where students can experience hands-on learning and develop knowledge and skills directly related to potential future careers.
