Hello my name is Mrs. Pierce. I am excited to be a new member of the STEM family in the Therapeutic Services Pathway. My goal as a STEM educator is to help students explore their possible healthcare careers, help them pick the career that best suits them, and assist them in planning their career goals. I want to foster a lifelong thirst for knowledge and success amongst my students.
