STEM is working with all the other schools in Brantford to put together a Vision 2024 Conference Titled "The World is Waiting". The committee of teachers is looking for some visual inspiration. As such we are running a poster contest. Your poster should take up approximately 2/3 of a 8 ½x11” page, because there will need to be room for writing on the poster. The graphic should evoke inspiration, hope, and change through technology. We are excited to see what you come up with! Due date: Thursday March 9, 2023. If possible, please use Adobe to create the file, and please save as a Vector File. For more information or to submit a drawing, please see Mr. Page in Room 3005.
