Full STEAM Ahead: MSMS Online Enrichment Program
All K-12 students and teachers are invited to participate in The Mississippi School for Mathematics and Science free online enrichment program, Full STEAM Ahead.
Designed by MSMS faculty and students, this program features weekly and monthly virtual STEM and fine arts-related activities for students and their parents as well as teachers and their classrooms to participate in.
Spring courses:
- NEW! Math All-Stars: This year, MSMS students and faculty are hosting a 5-week, math-inspired Zoom series for 1st-9th graders. If your student or class is waiting for a true challenge, join us virtually every Wednesday from Feb. 3-March 3 at 9 a.m. or 4:30 p.m. to participate! Students can register individually, or teachers can register their entire class for this enrichment experience.

- Bio-Inspired Design (AVAILABLE SPRING & FALL SEMESTER): During this 25-minute virtual session, 3rd-6th graders will learn how engineers observe nature to derive inspiration for engineering designs. Students will then be challenged to use what they’ve learned to create a design of their own. Students can register individually, or teachers can register their entire class for this enrichment experience.
Fall courses:
- Weekly Wednesday Workout: During this 25-minute virtual session, MSMS students will lead 1st-6th graders through mathematical problem sets based on their grade level standards. Students can register individually, or teachers can register their entire class for this enrichment experience.

After each session, students will be issued a challenge that is due the following week. If students are not able to attend during the scheduled time, session recordings will be posted below.
