STEM Education at Arvada West High School
The Arvada West STEAM Club provides an opportunity to enhance personal development, leadership and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM).
Members apply and integrate these concepts through intra-curricular activities, competitions and related programs. There will be opportunities for school-based competitions monthly and off-site competitions including the Colorado Technology Student Association (TSA) Conference and U.S. Department of Energy's High School Regional Science Bowl. STEAM members can participate in any or all of these competitions. You do not have to do them all to be a member of STEAM!
