 Today Quest students participated in a S.T.E.M. experience that required them to use critical thinking skills to solve a problem. The students worked together with teammates to save Sam. 


This S.T.E.M. challenge requires students to work together to formulate a plan on how to rescue Sam and get him into his life preserve without falling into the water. The hardest part, was that students couldn't touch Sam with their fingers. They could only use paper clips to maneuver him around and free the life preserve from underneath the boat. The students loved this project and all agreed that several failed attempts made them stronger, and realized the importance of task commitment and communication.
