In the spring of 2015, the Berlin-Boylston Public Schools received two STEM grants from the Biogen Foundation. One grant funded materials that enabled both elementary schools, Berlin Memorial School and Boylston Elementary, to create a Maker Space in each building. The second grant provided for materials for a course offering that delves into biogenics.
