Come to our informational meeting to learn about the open positions that we are looking to fill and how we will be establishing the program.

Holiday Gift Card Program is Back!

Our STEM Gift Card Program continues to be a HIT so we will bring it back again, just in time for the holiday season. The program allows STEM families to donate toward the purchase of gift cards to be given to STEM staff. Participating in the STEM Gift Card Program is the PERFECT way to thank all of our hard-working teachers and staff!

Here's how the program works: 

Place your order here by clicking the Buy Now Button on the page via the button below.


Type in the dollar amount you want to donate to a general fund (used to purchase gift cards for ALL STEM staff). The STEM Elf will do the gift card shopping! 


Gift cards will be delivered to staff before winter break along with a card “signed” by all families who donate to purchase staff gift cards.


Be sure to place your order (NO CASH) via the school link by December 15th.


Gift cards will be ordered on December 16

Staff will receive their gifts on December 22
