Pitsco Programs | Providing future-ready skills

Our Programs

We Aim to Deliver Transformative Learning Experiences that Prepare Students with Future-Ready Skills.

Pitsco Education has 50 years of experience providing innovative, hands-on curricula. Our academic, STEM, and career-based solutions offer proven programs that address core standards while providing students with tangible, kinesthetic experiences and real-world applications.

Through our programs, students experience a combination of teacher-led instruction and student-directed learning using a blend of strategies and delivery methods. Not only do students engage in learning, but they also acquire and strengthen their knowledge throughout a variety of hands-on, true-to-life projects and themes.

All our career-focused STEM curricula integrate a variety of college- and career-readiness skills while providing academically relevant learning opportunities for students in PreK through Grade 9.

Grades PreK-2

Early Learning Activity Bundles

Implementation is a breeze, and children are actively engaged in playful learning through multisensory instruction with these bundles! Choose from 15 activity bundles to engage and excite your early learners. Each activity bundle includes two activities and one engineering challenge that are aligned to NGSS, Common Core ELA and Math standards, and the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes. Each bundle comes with an activity guide and materials to serve 10-12 students.

Grades 3-5

STREAM Missions

At the elementary years, reading and art are very important pieces of whole-child development, which is why all Pitsco Missions programs weave reading practice, math, and art into core science instruction – turning STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) into STREAM (science, technology, reading, engineering, art, and math). Through structured and guided inquiry, age-appropriate technology, and interdisciplinary instructions, elementary students of all abilities are immersed in real-world STREAM exploration.

Grades 6-9

STEM Expeditions

Our Grades 6-9 programs, STEM and Career Expeditions, foster learning experiences that build skills for life. The cloud-based curriculum promotes science inquiry, math practices, engineering design principles, and career exploration principles by incorporating STEM concepts into real-world, relevant activities through rich, interactive content. With Expeditions, students are immersed in a collaborative work experience, seeking to answer an Essential Question through hands-on discovery and experimentation.

Cross-Sector Collaboration

There’s no substitute for hands-on education. We believe it. Educators believe it. Business and industry believe it. We know that STEM skills and the dispositions that come along with acquiring these skills will project well-equipped students into the workforce.

STEM Learning Ecosystems bring everyone together – education leaders, business leaders, and economic leaders – to collaborate and build STEM solutions for students. Explore how our programs are being implemented in various STEM Ecosystems to create STEM-rich learning environments.

“When you walk in that STEM lab and you see those students in there working hands on, and you walk into some of our regular, normal classrooms, I mean, the scale is very unbalanced. It’s night and day. It’s night and day because that Pitsco STEM lab gives our students the opportunity to work hands on and to move around and to work with a teammate to accomplish a goal. And I think our kids are excited about that.”

– Jeff Torrence, principal, Honeysuckle Middle School, Dothan, Alabama

“I wanted [Missions] because I know how impactful STEM can be for the entire school, the entire school culture. I’m all about the whole child. It’s not just about reading or writing or math. It’s about every child has some talent somewhere; you just have to find it.”

– Jay Parker, principal, Wallace Elementary School, Wallace, North Carolina

“It needs to be ingrained in them all the way up and down – the speaking skills, the soft skills – and it takes more than two years to develop these skills. The STEM model forces kids into having those conversations, making connections, and collaborating.”

– Rick Neal, superintendent, Pea Ridge Public Schools, Pea Ridge, Arkansas

“The level of individualized support you offer our teacher is amazing. It’s like having another instructional coach on our staff. Your relationship and ability to coach with empathy is appreciated. You took time to not only see a successful launch, but ongoing implementation; that level of capacity building is needed to sustain a successful program.”

– Sharrah Pharr, PhD, director of federal programs and grants, Hays CISD, Kyle, Texas
