Vision
The vision of STEAM education in the Los Angeles Unified School District is that “all our students graduate ready for the world,” empowered to become innovators, problem-solvers, and positive agents of change. By engaging in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM), students will develop the skills and knowledge necessary to address real-world challenges in their communities and beyond, shaping a more equitable and sustainable future.
Mission
To prepare all students for success in a rapidly evolving global economy, LAUSD is committed to providing high-quality, interdisciplinary STEAM education that fosters critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving. Through hands-on, inquiry-based learning, students will apply the scientific method, computational thinking, and engineering design to real-world problems, making learning engaging, relevant, and transformative.
By emphasizing equity and access, LAUSD ensures that all students, regardless of background, have opportunities to explore STEAM fields, bridging achievement and opportunity gaps. As industries advance, our STEAM programs will continue to equip students with the skills needed for future careers in emerging fields like robotics, artificial intelligence, and sustainable technology, empowering them to lead and innovate in the 21st century.
