Southport Elementary to hold STEM day at FSU Panama City

Southport Elementary School’s summer STEM campers will be on the Florida State University Panama City campus from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, June 25. Students, from second through fifth grade, will visit with Sam E. Nole and her programmers, FSU computer science students Bipol Alam and Brandon Yates. Afterward, they will make origami creations under the direction of Dr. Akiko Nakamura and crime solve in the forensic lab with Charla Perdue. 

“What I love is that Southport Elementary has organized a STEM camp,” said FSU Panama City STEM Institute director Ginger Littleton. “We are just providing an extension of the learning taking place on their school’s campus.”

Southport’s STEM day at FSU Panama City will be in the Holley Academic Center rooms B209 and B210.
