ABOUT the C-STEM lending library

Catholic STEM Lending Library is brought to you through a partnership between the Catholic Schools Center of Excellence (CSCOE) and the University of St. Thomas School of Engineering.


We believe that teaching STEM in our schools equips students with an understanding of the increasingly complex world in which they live. STEM proficiency is as important today as being able to read and write, and we seek to boost the resources of our Catholic grade schools through this Lending Library.
