The school was ok. It is a smaller school in Dauglas County but some teachers where great. A lot better then other school
8/2/2024
Very safe, friendly staff & teachers to make kids feel welcomed. They have resources available to help students with social and emotional behavior as well as academic support.
12/2/2023
We have been at STEM for 5 years starting in 3rd grade. My kid has thrived. We moved him from an elementary school in Douglas County that was not challenging him enough and was also very cliquey. At STEM he has found his people who love the same things he does. We love the small sizes of the classes and grades. He gets the attention he needs. We love the diversity of the student body. The teachers and leadership are passionate about what they do. It has been an A+ experience for us.

My friend was clearly having a hard time focusing and he had uncontrolable body tremors and he was on the edge of an overdose. We brought him to the nurses and they just sent him back listing it as a "panic attack". The same thing also happened to 3 other people in this school but one actually ended...

I am a parent of the Kindergarten student here at STEM.The biggest reason I picked STEM school was because of its diversity as our kid is colored in a neighborhood where more than 90% of students are white. However, the decision was very wrong. My kid was isolated for a month in the classroom away f...
