STEM ACADEMY (LSHS)
The Lakeville South STEM Academy and Industrial Technology
course offerings provide students hands-on opportunities to
develop skills in critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and
communication to ensure post-secondary and future readiness.
Each STEM pathway will:
• Build on a core of science and math offerings
• Provide engineering and technology opportunities
• Embed 21st century learning throughout multiple disciplines
• Culminate in a real-life capstone project with a community
connection
Students who complete the following requirements will get a STEM Academy medallion at
commencement and a designation on their transcript:
• Eight semesters of math
• Eight semesters of science
• Engineering Your Future 1 & 2
• One STEM Pathway Course
• Capstone Course
The Capstone course serves as a culminating demonstration of what a student has learned in his or
her STEM pathway. In this course, students will complete a semester long engineering design project
in which they will:
• Research a problem
• Design a solution
• Utilize the engineering process
• Demonstrate progress via a digital portfolio
• Create a variety of deliverables
• Present to a panel of teacher and community members

WORLD LANGUAGE
The study of world languages provides students with an opportunity to learn more about the
language, culture and traditions of other countries and builds essential skills for today’s global
society including: broadening your experiences, expanding your view of the world, contributing
to cultural awareness and literacy, building practical skills, improving the knowledge of your own
language through comparison and contrast with the world language, and expanding opportunities
for meaningful activities such as travel.
The fundamental objective of the World Languages Department is to encourage students to become
more aware of the world and its people through study of another language and culture. Students
will meet the following national standards of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign
Languages (ACTFL):
• Communicate in languages other than English
• Gain knowledge and understanding of other cultures
• Connect with other disciplines and acquire related information
• Develop insight into the nature of language and culture
• Participate in multilingual communities at home and around the world (upper levels)
Studying World Languages is beneficial for students whether they decide to continue their
education, enter the workforce or travel. While the world language requirements for specific
colleges and universities vary, most require language study for degree-seeking students. The world
languages offered are American Sign Language, French, Honors French, Spanish, and Honors
Spanish.
