CCHS STEM

We celebrated the STEM Senior Class of 2026 today with a pickleball tournament, snacks, and painting the CCHS spirit rock! Now they are off to the senior picnic! Congratulations!

Romeo and Juliet meets Hummingbird Robotics and Makey Makey! Check out our Project Based Learning projects from STEM English 1! Students incorporated the design cycle and digital tools of their choice to bring Romeo and Juliet to life!

STEM Economics and Personal Finance students presented their Ideal Candidate Job projects today! Students worked to build a job and career profile and were interviewed by students and staff! STEM students were required to answer questions about their resume, employability skills, and visual posters!

What a great community partnership! Mr. Bowen’s STEM Civics class partnered with Cabarrus County District Attorney Ashlie Shanley to participate in a mock trial and take learning outside of the classroom walls in a case of a stolen jet ski!

How is STEM education different? STEM is integrated into ALL of our classes! The STEM PE class led by Ms. Crosby followed the engineering design cycle and planned, organized, and implemented STEM activities that integrated PE standards with STEM concepts to lead a 2nd Grade STEM field day at Patriots Elementary today (and got to play a little disc golf!) It is amazing to see our CCHS STEM students taking the lead! CCS STEM Cabarrus County Schools

CCHS STEM and CTE students attended the “Don”t be a Cyber Fool” STEAM Summit today sponsored by Wells Fargo and UNC Charlotte! Students spent the day participating in Cybersecurity breakout sessions with Fox Pick, Backdoors and Breaches, Mock Interviews and MetaCTF along with a rock star line up of Cybersecurity guest speakers! This is an annual event and we can’t wait for next year!

CCHS was thrilled to partner with 1Can and Cabarrus County Education Foundation on a STEM project centered around empathy and the design cycle! Today a panel of judges visited all participating STEM schools to see their amazing designs! CCHS created a 1Can Viking ambassador! All canned goods will be donated to local food pantries to support our community!

The 3rd Annual NCHS and CCHS STEM Lock-In is in the books! STEM challenges, board games, Easter egg hunts, flash light tag, and scavenger hunts made for all night laughter and fun! A few STEM Vikings made it all night and others crashed around 4:30 AM. A huge thank you to Northwest Cabarrus High School for hosting a great night!

CCHS STEM Community! We are in need of canned goods for an amazing STEM project! Over the next 6 days, STEM students will be building a sculpture made out of canned good! Our sculpture will be judged in a competition on March 31at! After the competition, all canned goods will be donated to local food pantries directly benefiting our CCHS community! You can drop off cans at CCHS or contact Jennifer Caligan at [email protected] to arrange pick-up!

Our CCHS STEM teachers teamed up with Northwest Cabarrus High School STEM teachers for our annual STEMposium! Teachers had time to collaborate across content areas to integrate laser engraving technology into classroom PBL’s and learn how to use RD Works design software to design and create a product using the laser engraver! It was great to have one of our own STEM students assist in leading the laser engraving professional development!
