St. Louis School earns STEM Accreditation

In October of 2019, St. Louis School was awarded certification as a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) School by Cognia, formerly known as AdvancED. This certification recognizes St. Louis' continuing commitment to STEM education across all curriculum areas.

St. Louis School faculty and curriculum were evaluated against Cognia’s Standards and Indicators to determine the strength, effectiveness and consistency of STEM instruction. The Standards and Indicators clearly define the components vital to creating and sustaining superior, student-centered STEM teaching, as well as clear expectations for student outcomes and mastery of 21st Century skills.

Zulma Whiteford, STEM Coordinator for the school said, “We are proud of our teachers, parents, and students who embrace STEM learning and who bring creativity, communication, critical thinking, and collaboration to life at our blue-ribbon school!”

Cognia accredits primary and secondary schools throughout the United States and internationally and is the accrediting body for Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Baltimore.

St. Louis is an Archdiocese of Baltimore school with more than 500 students from Pre-Kindergarten through Eighth Grade. The school provides a rigorous, standards-based curriculum as well as after school programs that include computer programming, robotics and 3D printing.
