Boosting STEAM at GVHS

Exciting News: Boosting STEAM Education in Great Valley School District High School!

We're thrilled to share the latest developments in our ongoing efforts to support the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) program at Great Valley High School. Thanks to the recent generous donation from Dr. William Ford, founder of the Prime Meridian Group, we have achieved remarkable milestones in advancing STEAM education. Prime Meridian Group (Prime Meridian), a consulting agency, offers clients unique marketing and sales training solutions to healthcare and pharmaceutical companies.

Because of Dr. Ford and his team, our STEAM program has expanded with the addition of cutting-edge equipment and resources, providing students with opportunities for hands-on learning and innovative projects. With this gift, we've been able to invest in state-of-the-art prototyping kits, software, and technology that will empower our students to explore and excel in several critical engineering disciplines. The equipment provided allowed students to prototype an Adaptive Controller design for anyone with disabilities that prevents them from using a basic gaming controller.

Moreover, GVSD’s commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive STEAM environment remains unwavering. The Foundation, in partnership with GVSD, has been working closely with local organizations and businesses, like Prime Meridian, to provide mentorship opportunities, internships, and scholarships to underrepresented students, ensuring that every aspiring scientist, engineer, or mathematician has a chance to thrive in the STEAM program. This collaboration strengthens our resolve to create a brighter future for our students, preparing them for the challenges of tomorrow.

The support we've received from our business partners and community has been instrumental in nurturing young minds, fostering a passion for STEAM, and driving innovation. As we move forward, we are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of

STEAM education, and we are excited to see what the future holds for our students and the impact they will make on our world.

Thank you for your continued support and stay tuned for more updates on our STEAM program's progress in the coming months!
