STEM at Showalter

Chester is a gritty, working-class city just south of Philadelphia with a tight-knit community feel, and STEM at Showalter is one of the more distinctive options in the Chester-Upland district — a school with a focused identity in science, technology, engineering, and math that sets it apart from a traditional neighborhood school. Families who are drawn to a STEM-themed environment and want their kids engaged in that kind of purposeful curriculum will find something different here than what's typical in the district. It's a school that appeals to parents who are actively seeking out specialized programming and are willing to invest in a school community that's still finding its footing academically.
