[quote=Anonymous]Does he like technology or computers, building things? What about STA - Student Technology Association. They have competitions twice a year with all kinds of categories. My DS and his friends got involved b/c they took STEM Engineering freshman year and continued the series in FCPS. The initial class is like our old shop classes (building things) but gets more involved as they advance in the series. I think Senior year is something like robotics engineering, but everything is hands on and not much homework per se, although he does stay after every couple of weeks to finish projects with the classroom equipment. One of the Spring competition categories for TSA is building a retro video game. Just an example. They meet once a week, but sometimes skip a week. If he’s big into coding or hacking, there is another club that corresponds with those classes. All part of the CTE curriculum in FCPS. [/quote]
