Washington D.C. - U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin will visit with students and staff at STEM Academy and tour Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac on Friday, April 4, 2014.   STEM Academy is an elementary public charter school focused on science, technology, engineering and math studies where students learn from hands on, project-based assignments. The school was founded through a partnership with the Fond du Lac School District and local manufacturer, Mercury Marine, which offers technical expertise, technological resources and access to its engineering facilities to make class projects more interesting and engaging. Mercury benefits by working with a high-quality school that addresses the skills gap to ensure that young people develop the necessary job skills to succeed. Baldwin will tour the academy, hear from students, and see projects in action.  Baldwin will also visit Mercury Marine’s headquarters where she will meet with President Mark Schwabero and tour the assembly plant. Mercury Marine has had five major expansions over the last few years, which have broadened their ability to compete in the global marketplace. In addition, Baldwin will see assembly of the 150 FourStroke outboard, a new product launched in 2012. Mercury Marine’s Fond du Lac facility employs 3,100 workers.
