SmartLab Learning Recognized as Innovative STEM Program at Republican National Convention

Written by Bill Laurienti

SmartLabs were recognized at this year’s Republican National Convention as an innovative, student-focused STEM program.

Former SmartLab Facilitator Sean Duffy was a guest speaker during Jeb Bush’s address to the RNC convention last night.

While Sean is now a teacher at a Texas high school, he spent the past year serving as the Facilitator in the SmartLab HQ at Englewood High School in Colorado.

Sean credits SmartLab Learning for addressing what students need to learn to become “the next generation of leaders, thinkers, builders, and entrepreneurs.”

We are proud to be an innovative and effective approach to preparing today’s learners for college and career success. Congratulations, Sean.
