Over 400 middle school students from Bartlesville, Oklahoma, recently took place in an educational STEM event. For those unfamiliar with the acronym, STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and math. Held at Madison School Middle School, the free academic event was open to any interested pupils from grades six through eight.
Hands on math experience makes learning easier and more interactive.
STEM covers everything from coding to geology as to broaden curriculum.
The STEM event also explored job opportunities in the energy field. Various activity stations spread across the area gave students hands-on experience in various interactive tasks, like coding, seismic activity, acid trials, stream tables, and rock samples. ConocoPhillips partnered with Oklahoma State University to bring the important career event to students.
Madison Middle School Principal Joey Eidson said having good relationships with energy companies in Bartlesville and a spirit of teamwork between Central and Madison middle schools continue to allow the Bartlesville school system to be on the cutting edge of providing quality educational experiences for local students.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
