STEM Program
Science, technology, engineering, and math taught as one connected subject rather than four separate ones — building, experimenting, and problem-solving.
Beyond the Classroom
Learning at WCA doesn’t stop at the classroom door. Four signature programs extend it — through hands-on STEM, personalized instruction, real-world trips, and care that fits a working family’s day.
The Programs
Science, technology, engineering, and math taught as one connected subject rather than four separate ones — building, experimenting, and problem-solving.
A new program launching in August 2026. Details are being finalized — contact the school to be notified.
Not ordinary field trips: each one pairs a guided tour with a STEM program, so the day counts as real instruction.
WCA’s newest athletic club, hosted at Xcel Padel in West Palm Beach.
On-campus aftercare gives working families a safe, supervised place for students when the school day ends.
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
STEM programs in education focus on an interdisciplinary approach to teaching these four fields. Instead of viewing them as separate subjects, STEM curriculum integrates them into a cohesive learning experience that encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity.
Here are some of the benefits of STEM programs in education:
STEM programs challenge students to apply their knowledge of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to solve real-world problems. This helps them develop critical thinking skills, such as the ability to analyze information, identify patterns, and develop solutions.
STEM programs encourage students to think outside the box and come up with new ideas. This is essential for success in the 21st century workplace, which is increasingly driven by innovation.
STEM programs often involve teamwork, as students work together to design, build, and test prototypes. This helps them develop communication and collaboration skills, which are essential for success in any field.
STEM programs can help students develop the skills and knowledge they need to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These are some of the fastest-growing and highest-paying careers in the world.

Starting August 2026, we are implementing the PACE program. Read More
At WCA, we refer to field trips as Educational Trips because students engage in a STEM program in addition to a guided tour.
For the safety of our students, we charter a bus for safe transportation to and from our campus. Students will leave the campus at 9 am and return by 2 pm. These educational trips are for students only, NO parents.
Educational trips usually require a small fee payable via Zelle, or fee can be dropped off at our front office. Students should wear their WCA Spirit Shirt. We will provide a snack, but please ensure your child has their packed lunch in a disposable container (Ziplock bag—NO lunchbox).
Field trips require parents/ guardian to complete and sign a Consent Form for each child.
More details via email prior to the trip.

Padel is WCA’s newest athletic club, hosted at Xcel Padel in West Palm Beach. Families can meet the club at the open house on August 6th, which includes refreshments, open play for children, and a tour of the facilities.
When the school day ends, students can stay on campus in a safe, supervised setting. The Aftercare Registration Form is available in our Family Portal resources.
Good to Know
Science, technology, engineering, and math come alive through building, experimenting, and problem-solving — not just textbooks. Hands-on STEM learning runs through every division.
WCA is implementing the PACE program starting in August 2026. Program details have not been published yet — contact the school at info@gowca.org to be notified as they are announced.
WCA doesn’t do ordinary field trips — Educational Trips extend the classroom into the real world throughout the school year. On trip days, students wear the WCA spirit tee.
Yes. On-campus aftercare gives working families a safe, supervised place for students when the school day ends. An Aftercare Registration Form is available in the Family Portal resources.
