The STEAM classes will show how science is applied to everyday life and how to use it to solve problems. Participants will also learn about careers in the STEAM related fields.
Unique to the North Dakota State Fair will be the Agriculture class. A focus of the Fair is bringing agriculture education to all fairgoers. This class will offer an interactive way for kids to see the impact of Agriculture in their everyday life.
