Freshman and sophomore students in Manchester's STEAM Ahead NH program at West High School had the chance to show U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen some of the innovative work they're doing in engineering, physical science and English classes. The senator took a tour of the classrooms where students are focused on project-based lessons and integrating technology. "It's wonderful to see how engaged the students are," said Senator Shaheen. "Giving them these hands-on opportunities and the ability to learn in different ways are critical for success."
