Our 7th grade STEM students are putting their creativity and problem-solving skills to the test by designing their very own corn maze! 🌽🧠
This hands-on project encouraged students to model real-world systems, apply the engineering design process, and understand agricultural applications in their community. By integrating math, technology, and science, students are learning how to think critically, collaborate effectively, and explore how STEM impacts everyday life—especially in an agriculture-rich state like Kentucky!
