Freehold Regional High School District Awarded $10,000 to Develop a STEM Learning Center

Grant funding from the OceanFirst Foundation will allow a high school within the district to design a state-of-the-art technology classroom

WASHINGTON, DC – Manalapan High School was one of five high schools in the Englishtown, New Jersey area to receive $10,000 from the OceanFirst Foundation’s Model Classroom Grant Program.

Statewide, only 14% of college degrees granted in New Jersey are in STEM fields. In response to the increasing local, state, and national need for scientists, engineers, technicians, and other skilled workers in STEM fields, Manalapan will use awarded funds to create a STEM Learning Center. Specifically, grant funding will help the district purchase computer-aided design (CAD) workstations; install programs for students to work with industry-standard CAD software; and invest in both smart boards and a 3-D printer.
