On Saturday, October 6 the Moreno Valley Unified School District will launch a new Saturday STEAM Academy program aimed at supporting students to be successful in school. During each scheduled Saturday, students will have the opportunity to enrich their skills in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) – while allowing them to make-up missed days of attendance. Each Saturday STEAM Academy day that students attend will recover a day missed earlier in the school year. Students will also be able to receive tutoring, catch up on missing assignments, and take their skills to the next level. Lunch will be provided to all students in attendance for free. Transportation will not be provided. “Our new Saturday STEAM Academy will enhance our students’ education while allowing them to make up missed days of attendance,” said Board President Susan Smith, “As a former teacher, I know the importance of attendance and the Academy will ensure all students are on track with their learning.” "Students are much more successful if they are in school every day," said Superintendent Dr. Martinrex Kedziora, "The Saturday STEAM Academy will give our students more opportunities to be successful by building their skills and improving attendance." The Saturday STEAM Academy sessions will take place on: October 6, 2018 November 3, 2018 January 26, 2019 February 9, 2019 March 2, 2019 April 13, 2019 April 20, 2019 May 4, 2019 Session times for elementary schools is 8:00 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.; middle schools is 8:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and high schools from 8:30 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Information on enrollment is available at each school’s office.
