BRACK: STEM school students change the way for future ribbon cuttings

By Elliott Brack |  Ribbon cutting will never be the same again after Wednesday’s official opening of Curiosity Lab’s new activities in Peachtree Corners. Four students from Paul Duke STEM High School changed the way ribbons cuttings are held, as they guided  two drones through the skies, holdings ends of a red ribbon, as city and Curiosity Lab officials snipped the ribbon signaling the start of the nation’s first 5G-powered smart city technology proving ground on Technology Parkway.

BRACK: Visiting the new Paul Duke STEM School; Grad rates at Georgia State

JUNE 12, 2018  |  It was an early-morning open house recently at the new Paul Duke STEM High School in Norcross. I was disappointed in the lack of a crowd to tour the new facility. The school had mailed invitations for the public to come look at the just-finished school, though workmen were going through the final check-list while we were there.

The school itself is beautiful, built at 5850 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard in Norcross. It is expected to relieve crowded conditions at Norcross High, while offering an innovative program in science, technology, engineering and math.
