Each School of Science and Technology teaches the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) curriculum established by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and codified in the Texas Administrative Code, Title 19 (19 TAC).
Math and Science Focused Education
School of Science and Technology was founded with the purpose of better preparing students to excel in college through a math and science-focused education.
- Students who take rigorous math and science courses are more likely to attend college
- People with strong math and science backgrounds are highly employable
- Shortages in workers skilled in math and science affect U.S. performance in the global market economy
Early Emphasis on Math and Science Education:
Students attending SST begin their departmentalized math and science instruction in the third grade, enabling them to receive a strong math and science foundation from highly qualified teachers at an early age.
