CAS STEM Education Receives Outstanding Financial Support from Partners

 

CAS High School and Middle School continues their strong STEM focuses with new programs and ongoing partnerships for the 2015 school year including a $20,000 technology enhancement by Arizona’s 21st Century CCLC and over $35,000 from the Science Foundation Arizona.

 

The CAS Engineering Lab — which houses its very popular engineering curriculum — was generously provided in Memory of Joyce Marley Corrigan, with Funding from The Kemper and Ethel Marley Foundation and Science Foundation Arizona. pltw_logo_final Continuing partnerships have enabled CAS’s success in engineering, technology, and robotics. CAS’s engineering program led by Mr. Oh! is a Project Lead the Way (PLTW) Curriculum which is among the nation’s top high school engineering programs. In 2015, CAS begins its second year with PLTW with both introductory and advanced engineering classes.

This is a bit off topic, but interesting nonetheless. B Franklin mentioned the late Kemper Marley in his post. Marley's daughter, Joyce Corrigan, is responsible for the demise of Scottsdale's tough, former Hillside Ordinance, and the subsequent development that you now see on the slopes of the McDowell Mountains. Marley, who was a rancher before he became a liquor magnate, owned the former DC Ranch land in the McDowells. Scottsdale passed the Hillside Ordinance in 1977, which severely restricted – if not prevented – development in the McDowells. Corrigan, who inherited her father's land, considered this a virtual land-taking by the city, as it prevented her estate from developing or selling the property. So, she sued. In 1985, the Arizona Court of Appeals sided with Corrigan, reversing an earlier trial court decision in favor of the City of Scottsdale. The city appealed the decision, but the Arizona Supreme Court refused to overturn the CoA decision. This allowed landholders like Corrigan to develop their properties on hillsides. The end result is leapfrog, gated communities like DC Ranch, McDowell Mountain Ranch, etc.
