Okaloosa STEMM Academy

We train the next generation of STEMM leaders to actively investigate, to question current practice, and to design new solutions to local and global problems.

The Okaloosa Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medical (STEMM) Academy is an innovative middle school that provides a free and public education to sixth- through eighth-grade students in Okaloosa County with a curriculum focused on academic rigor and acceleration. The STEMM Academy was established in 2012 as part of the Okaloosa STEMM Center. In addition to the STEMM Academy, the Okaloosa STEMM Center includes the Center for STEMM Innovation (CSI) teacher training center, and a central location for PreK students with disabilities. The families, faculty, staff, and administration at STEMM emphasize student academic achievement as our primary mission and are committed to continuous school improvement. Adhering to the rigorous national accrediting standards established by AdvancED, STEMM has been accredited by CogNiA/AdvancED every year. STEMM has consistently earned an "A" rating from the Florida Department of Education's School Recognition Program.
