All families MUST complete the Express Check-in Process to ensure they receive communication from the school. Failure to complete the Express Check-in process will result in significant limitations to internet service at STEM School Highlands Ranch.

Each Friday we send out three newsletters to our various stakeholder groups (parents/community, students and staff). Parents are automatically signed up for our newsletter using the information provided in Infinite Campus. People can also sign-up for the newsletter using our sign-up form and can find archives via the Get Connected page on the Parent Page. Newsletters are sent through Constant Contact.
Since we are a K-12 school, there is a lot of information that gets shared with our community each week. In order to be as efficient as possible with our limited resources, we break up the newsletter into specific sections to organize the information as best as we can for our families. For Elementary-specific news, please click on the Elementary News/Updates section. For Secondary (6-12)-specific news, please click on the Secondary News/Updates section. |
