Bring STEM to Life for Your Students

Engaging. Hands-on. Designed with educators in mind.

We believe every student deserves the chance to see what's possible through STEM. That's why we offer STEM Day at GSSM and STEM Days on the Go - two flexible outreach programs designed for students in grades 3-10. These experiences are standards-aligned, free of charge, and led by our expert instructors and trained facilitators.

STEM Day at GSSM

Grades 3–10 | You bring your students to us

Give your students a day of immersive STEM experiences on our state-of-the-art campus.

GSSM’s STEM Day is a half-day event that brings hands-on, age-appropriate STEM activities to elementary schools across South Carolina. Led by GSSM’s Outreach team and trained facilitators, your students will rotate through a series of fun, interactive stations focused on core STEM concepts. Activities are designed to be accessible, engaging, and aligned with SC science standards. 

  • Hands-on STEM labs in engineering, chemistry, physics, and more.
  • Campus tour and GSSM student-led exploration.
  • Lunch in the GSSM Dining Hall.
  • Opportunities to meet GSSM students and faculty.

Why Schools Keep Coming Back

"The engagement was wonderful for our students. Each lesson directly related to our SC State Standards in Math or Science. I also feel that this experience provides a spark that hopefully becomes a flame later and one of our students will attend GSSM! Our students loved the robotics demonstration. So many want to come back and build their own robots."

  • Standards-based curriculum aligned to science and engineering practices.
  • Materials and supplied provided by GSSM.

See What You Can Expect

"The STEM Day experience was wonderful for our students at CTE. Our school day is so limited and the time for exploration and hands-on experience often gets pushed aside. I think this experience helped open the teachers' eyes to how important this time is to students. They really enjoyed the time of exploration and the use of technological tools like 3D pens."
