At Eastern, we understand the importance in emphasizing the connectivity between content in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). With a focus on STEM programming as a coordinated effort to expose students to STEM practices and to promote STEM careers, curriculum and coursework can be interdisciplinary. STEM practices are collaborative, engaging, and include hands-on inquiry learning in a higher level thinking context. 

Students entering Eastern Regional High School in the fall of 2025 will have access to STEM Pathways and concentrations within each pathway that have been developed to support students’ specific areas of interest.  These pathways provide a core sequence of classes that prepare students for college and careers within, or related to, their area of interest.  Upon successful completion of a STEM pathway, students may earn dual college credits, industry credentials or certifications, or recognition of completion.  Built on flexibility and the understanding that incoming first-year students should have ample time and opportunity to identify their area of interest, students in the academy will have plenty of choice throughout their high school experience.
