What is MESA?
The Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) at Comstock is an exciting and challenging way to collaborate between science and mathematics. Our goal is to both encourage curiosity as well as prepare students for a future in the field of science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM).
This course will act as an introduction to and discovery of non-traditional middle school curriculum in the STEM areas. Emphasis will be on student-based discovery and collaboration in a project centered learning environment.
