Lake County Schools is preparing to kick off the 7th annual STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) Bowl from March 11-14, 2019. This event is a competition among Lake County elementary and middle school students to promote STEAM education, provide enrichment opportunities and increase collaboration among students.

Students from grade-level teams will work collaboratively to answer higher-order thinking questions and performance tasks that will require the use of several 21st-century skills.

During STEAM Bowl, students will demonstrate their expertise by engaging in an engineering design challenge.
