Re: STEM curriculum for HS class

Two days before school starts, the administration cancelled the class . They needed a physics class instead. Could that not have been integrated into a STEM class? Is there not tons of physics what you build robots and do CAD and build simple machines etc.??? I'm floored...

Don't give up! Michigan Pupil Accounting allows for "independent study" courses that can count towards graduation requirements. By the way, Michigan requires three full years of science for high school graduation - 1 year of Biology, 1 year of Chemistry or Physics and 1 year of a lab-based science course. These courses are taught in a variety of delivery modes ranging from the traditional AP, college prep style as well as styles that align with practical understandings.

While your district probably had good intentions, they have to offer the required courses to the students.

Curriculum development is a long-term project. If you are looking for some Michigan specific resources, PM me.
