Welcome to Our Blog

Students, families, and friends: welcome to Stratford Biotechnology’s student-run blog! Posts will be written entirely by students, with seniors in charge of blog management and photography. They will feature some of the awesome experiments and discussions which take place in our classes at every grade level so that we can all stay connected.

For those of you who are new to the program, I am Ms. Price, and this is my fifth-year teaching BioSTEM at Stratford. I have a wide range of experience which culminates in my leading this program. Previously, I worked in a drug-interactions testing facility, as a teaching assistant in a college pre-med Human Anatomy and Physiology lab with cadavers, as the educational outreach specialist at a park and at an agritourism attraction, as a researcher in a reptile behavior and physiology lab, and as a technician in a reptile ecology lab.

I received my Bachelor’s in Science with a focus in Biology from Austin Peay State University, Master’s in Science with a focus in Biology from Indiana State University, and am currently completing my last semester for my Master’s in Education at Lipscomb University. One of my favorite parts of this job is preparing students for college and careers, especially those who are interested in science. I am so excited to begin this new year with you all!

Sincerely,

Ms. Price

How Bio STEM prepares you for your future

In Bio STEM, this class will prepare you for the near future. You will have projects to do on colleges and how to prepare for it, how to save money, and to not depend on people for money to graduate from college. We will have mock interviews, and class discussions to promote critical thinking.

We work with animals and learn about them, you’ll feed them, bathe them, and take care of them as your own. You’ll learn about human and animal anatomy and how it impacts the way of life. We use equipment essential to the labs and lesson done. To make an interactive and interesting class, students will be able to choose what to learn so it can be included in the course.

BioSTEM teachers will always make sure students get quality education. !Students are required to learn lab safety and be OSHA Certified to participate in the labs and classes!

Thank you!

En Bio STEM, esta clase te preparará para el futuro cercano. Tendrá proyectos que hacer sobre las universidades y cómo prepararse para ellas, cómo ahorrar dinero y no depender de las personas para obtener dinero para graduarse de la universidad. Tendremos entrevistas simuladas y debates en clase para promover el pensamiento crítico.

Trabajamos con animales y aprendemos sobre ellos, los alimentarás, los bañarás y los cuidarás como si fueran tuyos. Aprenderá sobre la anatomía humana y animal y cómo afecta la forma de vida. Utilizamos equipos esenciales para los laboratorios y las lecciones realizadas. Para hacer una clase interactiva e interesante, los estudiantes podrán elegir qué aprender para poder incluirlo en el curso.

Los maestros de BioSTEM siempre se asegurarán de que los estudiantes reciban una educación de calidad. ¡Los estudiantes deben aprender sobre seguridad en el laboratorio y estar certificados por OSHA para participar en los laboratorios y las clases!

Gracias!

Spiro!!

Ms. Price’s dope sidekick! A Worldwide celebrity! Come by Ms. Price’s class and say hello when he is here at school some days!

More about Spiro: He has literally. Two. Brain. Cells. He doesn’t remember faces, or even what he ate for breakfast because he has short term memory loss! But that does not make him less of a dragon!

The most famous celeb at Stratford STEM high school!

The leadership in BioSTEM

What is leadership? A leader is somebody whom people follow. A leader has authority; For people to accept a leader, his or her leadership must therefore be legitimate. What does it mean to be a leader? Being a leader means that you accept all of your responsibilities for the position you’re taking. In BioSTEM III we now take on jobs, which means we all have responsibilities. For example, as a blog manager it is my responsibility to make sure everything is in check, without a blog manager there would be several mistakes not fixed. Having responsibilities in this class will help some people earn job experience.
