Academic Information and Curriculum
STREAM
STREAM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Art, and Math. Recent shifts in education have favored the subjects of STEM, primarily because there is a shortage of workforce in these particular areas. At Holy Family we are adding Religion and Art to some of our labs and in doing so we are promoting learning within these six fields.
