After-school STEAM Programs for Elementary Schools
Structured, hands-on STEAM programs led by trained educators designed to extend classroom learning in a manageable after-school format.
What these programs are
A high-quality extension of in-school STEAM learning.
Splatter Learning’s after-school STEAM programs provide students with additional time to explore engineering, robotics, science, and design through hands-on projects. Programs are intentionally structured to ensure instructional quality, predictable scheduling, and ease of implementation for schools.
After-school classes work especially well as a follow-up to our in-school STEAM instruction, giving interested students the opportunity to go deeper while maintaining consistency in teaching approach and expectations.
