In this case, we asked teachers to specifically choose math or science because we wanted to do a STEM-to-STEAM arts integration. Shownotes: www.coolcatteacher.com/e153.

I was fortunate enough to be able to see it at a conference. Mandi: It’s a documentary that was released last year. I’m not even certain who produced it. But it was being shown in private settings, so community settings. It’s about a millionaire who invested money into a charter school called High Tech High out in California. Vicki: Oh yeah.
