Our Family STEM Night is quickly approaching! We are hard at work constructing a hands-on experience that shows exactly how we're building a culture of #STEM every day. Mark your calendars: 📅 Date: March 31, 2026 🕓 Time: 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM 📍 Location: Humphries Elementary

Marching into our Family STEM Night at the end of this month! Come out and see how we are "building" a STEM culture at @APSHumphriesES.

Recently, the South Atlanta Cluster's STEM coaches hosted our Partnership breakfast. Collaborating helps us see the STEM pipeline flow from elementary to high school. This is a phenomenal team and we’re not done yet! #STEM #SouthAtlanta #Partnerships

✨What a beautiful night celebrating our rich Black culture! From amazing musical and step performances to fun trivia (with prizes!) every moment with our Humphries family was special. ✨#BlackHistory

An real time example of critical thinking and problem-solving. If something doesn't work the first time, you can always try again! #STEM #Coding #Beebots

Math + Coding = Fun😃! Students created a path using 6in. squares for the Beebot to travel through. Students worked collaboratively and had to problem solve as they encountered errors. I think they did pretty well on this task 👍. #STEM #Coding #Beebots

Thanks @ScienceATL for allowing our students the opportunity to see how math is used to solve real-world problems. Guest speakers are helpful by giving us a glimpse of where education can take us. #STEM #MathHero

Successful PD days! Thankful to the folks from #Handsonatlanta who delivered #STEM kits for ALL of our students. We also engaged in learning around academic monitoring and meaningful mentorship practices.

Who knew a little "shakedown" was part of the scientific process? 🌶️ Since there’s no wind or bees indoors, my peppers needed a hand with self-pollination. A gentle shake to release the pollen, and we're on our way to a harvest! #STEM #Hydroponics #IndoorGardening

Here at @APSHumphriesES, we are giving students real-world exposure to the possibilities that await them. During my visit to @AtlantaCCAcad, I saw firsthand the powerful connection between elementary school and future career paths. #STEM

@apssteam @DocSTEM In the next 10 school days, students will CREATE/PRODUCE a infographic to show mastery of circuits because technology is necessary to become a future leader.

Exit ticket + question for everyone: In the next 10 school days, students will CREATE/PRODUCE ____ to show mastery of ____ because technology is necessary to ____. (No student info) Drop your example below 👇🏾 #APS #EdTech #STEM #FutureReady @DocSTEM #FebSTEAMPLC

@apssteam @DocSTEM Technology is worth it in learning when students can CREATE/PRODUCE innovative designs to show mastery of content and show a piece of themselves.

Technology is worth it in learning when students can CREATE/PRODUCE _____ to show mastery of _____. Reply with your best example (keep it general—no student names). #APS #EdTech #STEM @DocSTEM #FebSTEAMPLC

This week we explored different ways to build—lumber, LEGOs, paper, or carboard. Whether creating freely or following a plan, building helps strengthen problem-solving and critical thinking skills. 🛠️🧠 #STEM #Construction @CalRipkenSrFdn @ConstrucReady.

New month, new #STEMChallenge in the February newsletter 🎶 For my music lovers: Who are the black musical pioneers, and how do their innovations still shape the music we hear today?

These 3rd grade students represented @APSHumphriesES in the APS District Science Fair. We also enjoyed an interactive show from @FunWeirdScience while there. #STEM #Science #Fun

I'm so proud of these 2nd graders for taking the intiative to complete the January #STEM Challenge. They really popped out & showed out! #Engineer #Creative #Art

When you step into @APSHumphriesES, these plants will be the first to say hello. Can you spot what's growing in our #TowerGarden? #STEM #Hydroponics #Plants

A big thank you to The Bio-Bus program at @GeorgiaStateU for visiting our 5th graders. Students were able to see different organisms up close and find out why animals are classified in the ways they are.

Congrats to our fabulous team and staff member of the month! They are constant supports and we’re thankful to have them! #paraprofessionals #mediaspecialist
