STEMTOWN: Wallingford, CT

The superintendent of Wallingford Public Schools, Dr. Salvatore Menzo, wants to raise awareness for incorporating more S.T.E.M fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) into everyday, K-12 curriculums throughout the world. While this is a global issue, Dr. Menzo and his Wallingford constituents (teachers, business owners, and the community members) have been working tirelessly to inject S.T.E.M into their curriculums now. This is their story.
