Baton Rouge STEM was founded in November 2019 by Eric B. Lewis following the closing of Apex Collegiate Academy. He founded Apex as a STEM-based college preparatory school for students in grades 6-12. BRSTEM is a Baton Rouge-based, STEM development program for youth and professional educators. We marry our founder’s passion for engineering and education in a way that provides students with relevant application of the rigorous academic experiences they have in their respective schools.
