STEM School Highlands Ranch

Welcome back STEM School Highlands Ranch! Happy first day! @drwinsor @DCSD_Super @dcsdk12 #proudtobeDCSD @stemschoolHR

Welcome to STEM! It was nice to see some of the new faces this school year at our new staff orientation breakfast. Additionally, we have many returning staff members and to go along with that, high marks in our recent TLCC survey. It's shaping up to be another great year!

Welcome to STEM Laurie Veldhuizen! Laurie joins the team as our new Director of Enrollment. Laurie has already been busy meeting with prospective parents, giving tours and getting ready to start the new school year. Welcome to STEM Laurie! #MissionLaunch #enrollment

An all-female team of students from @stemschoolHR have invented a device that could reduce collisions between motor vehicles and wildlife. What an innovative project! cbsnews.com/colorado/news/…

Checking all systems. STEM's payload team is getting ready for a ULA rocket launch and competition coming up in Pueblo. This week they held a drop test. Best of luck to the team on the upcoming launch! #MissionLaunch #Summer #students #stemeducation #charterschool

Happy Independence Day! We hope that all of you have a safe and enjoyable July 4th as we all celebrate the American dream. #fourthofjuly2024 #IndependenceDay #IndependenceDay2024

Farewell celebration! Today the Center for Strength closed its doors and held a parking lot celebration that included a crepe truck, games, resources, chalk art and rock installation. A special thanks to the center and all of its staff for the impact they've made.

A weekend of reflection, honor and respect. We pay tribute to all who sacrificed their lives for our nation and those who mourn their loss. #MemorialDay #MemorialDayweekend #remember #tribute #honor #military #unitedstates #servicemembers

Opa! Out with the old and in with the new! Following the STEM Staff Appreciation Breakfast, we held the 2nd annual plate smashing event. This is a fun Greek tradition that is a representation of the good that will come forth with the new school year. #MissionLaunch

We appreciate you! With the conclusion of the 2023-2024 school year, STEM staff is celebrated each year with the staff appreciation breakfast. It's a chance to honor our hard working team members who give it their all day in and day out. #MissionLaunch #STEMeducation

It's so hard to say goodbye! Our last day of elementary school was filled with emotions. Some sad faces, excited faces and a little bit of everything! That's why...it's not goodbye. It's see you after Summer! #elementary #MissionLaunch #school #lastdayofschool
