Launching a STEM Story for Every Student

Grenada School District wanted to help students blaze a trail toward the best futures possible, and exposing them to engineering and science fields in as early grades as possible was critical. “Traditional teaching approaches were not working, so we knew that wasn’t the way we wanted to go,” recalled Carol Tharpe, Principal of Grenada Elementary 4-5.

Since implementing PLTW in 2016-17, Grenada School District has elevated its district rating from C to A and is now in the top 20% of all districts in the state on the 2023 Mississippi Statewide Accountability System.
