Gillette Elementary

Our Middle Schools took learning beyond the classroom at the 15th Annual CORE4STEM Expo hosted by the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce at Port San Antonio.

Students connected with major employers and educators like Toyota, Boeing, H-E-B, Alamo Colleges and CPS Energy to explore real-world STEM opportunities in robotics, engineering and technology.

Thank you to our dedicated teachers, staff and middle school principals for supporting experiences that inspire the next generation of innovators.
