The annual STEAM Exploration Night embraces the integral role of the arts in fostering creativity and innovation within science, technology, engineering, and math. The recent addition of the “A” in STEAM highlights the importance of design thinking, visual creativity, and problem-solving skills – essential elements in today’s interdisciplinary world.
This year's student-voted theme, Full STEAM Ahead, illuminates how STEAM can be used as a tool to achieve career goals. Fueled by imagination and driven by innovation, students are on a journey to explore, experiment, and excel!
Join us and thousands of PreK-12th-grade scholars to explore the many possibilities through STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math). By attending this event, you'll be inspired to explore, prepare for, and launch into STEAM opportunities, and ultimately, exciting STEAM careers!
Schools are let out 75 minutes early in support of staff professional learning and collaboration time. If you would like to know more about how this time is used to positively impact student learning, please reach out to your school. View Early Release Bell Times here.

Scholar-Led Conferences/ No School
Families are critical partners in each scholar’s learning.
A Scholar-Led Conference is different from a traditional parent/teacher conference. The purpose of a Scholar-Led Conference is for children to summarize their strengths and next steps for learning based on their individual work and achievement data. Scholars and families should leave the conference on the same page about individual strengths and areas of focus.
To view the available times and schedule your child’s conference, log into ParentVue and click on “Scholar Led Conferences”. If you have any questions about this process, there are helpful “How To” guides and videos on our website at www.fwps.org/SLC.
