First arts program at Cassidy cut. Now, STEM at James Lane Allen cut. Fayette County Schools should be rolling in the $$. Where is it all going? DEI programs and high administrative overhead? It’s ridiculous everything that has happened since our superintendent and current/prior board has been in position. And it’s only going to get worse.
from Mrs. Kathy Keinath, STEM teacher at James Lane Allen Elementary:
"It has been an amazing experience being your children's STEM instructor. We have done many great things. They have all driven Sphero's and programmed them. They have learned to add things to a Padlet. They have used Google doc, slides and created wonderful stop- motion movies about different topics. We have hatched chicken eggs, watched ladybug larvae turn into ladybugs and watched caterpillars turn into butterflies. They have learned about different kinds of animals, their habitats and life cycles. They have build bridges and stacked 100's of cups. We are even flying Drones on these last few days. There are lots of other things we've done. Sadly this won't be happening next year.
The district did not provide enough staffing to continue STEM, so I will be back in a grade level classroom. Thank you for this opportunity to teach all of your children."
