Broward County Public Schools is giving a new identity to established educational programs at two Margate elementary schools. Atlantic West Elementary School and Liberty Elementary School have offered specialized STEM-focused learning for several years. The programs are now being rebranded as part of the district\u2019s emphasis on Magnet and Innovative Programs.<\/p>\n
BCPS uses Magnet and Innovative Programs to connect student interests with specialized educational opportunities. Magnet Programs allow eligible students to attend theme-based programs outside their assigned school boundaries, with transportation available within designated zones. Innovative Programs serve students within a school\u2019s attendance boundary and incorporate specialized themes into the regular school experience.<\/p>\n
Atlantic West Elementary School offers an Innovative STEM Program for students from Pre-K through Grade 5. The established program uses science experiments and project-based activities to introduce students to STEM concepts while developing problem-solving skills.<\/p>\n
Liberty Elementary School continues its longstanding focus on science and technology through its Science and Technology Innovative Program. Students participate in technology-supported instruction and hands-on projects that connect classroom concepts with practical applications.<\/p>\n
The rebranding places both schools within BCPS\u2019s broader Innovative Programs framework while maintaining programs that have already served Margate students for years. For families, the new branding provides a more consistent way to identify specialized learning opportunities available within Broward County Public Schools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Broward County Public Schools is giving a new identity to established educational programs at two Margate elementary schools.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":371171,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[150074,684,249,251,250,150073],"class_list":["post-371170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-fort-lauderdale","tag-and-community-updates","tag-events","tag-fort-lauderdale","tag-fort-lauderdale-headlines","tag-fort-lauderdale-news","tag-margate-news-latest-local-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/371170","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=371170"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/371170\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/371171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=371170"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=371170"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=371170"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
