Our students excitedly unveil projects at the Hudson County STEM Showcase each March. Our presenters tirelessly prepare outstanding projects, showcasing their dedication to scientific inquiry and innovation. Their hard work is evident in the research, writing, and creativity poured into these exceptional presentations.
Hudson Montessori School’s accredited STEAM program integrates science, technology, engineering, art, and math into every grade level. This STEAM curriculum is the foundation for the remarkable projects presented each year. We take great pride in supporting our students' efforts and commend their commitment to excellence as they prepare for this year’s showcase.
The Hudson County STEM Showcase is open to all students in Hudson County. We are grateful for the continued support of our neighbor, Jersey City Medical Center/RWJBarnabas Health, which has proudly served as the presenting sponsor for eight years.
Congratulations to every student who participated in this year's STEM Showcase. We look forward to seeing how each of your innovative presentations evolves.Â
