Weekly Parent Newsletter

Anxiety is always high at the start of the school year as all families are trying to be as prepared as possible. While we send all of the important information in each week's Parent Newsletter, we've also compiled all of the important information that you need to know in the Back-to-School Information Hub.

Please check the link below to view the Back to School Parent Information Sessions (Presentations and Recordings)

Both phases of Express Check-In are open and we're asking ALL families to please complete this process by Monday, Aug. 5.

We've partnered with WaytoGo School Pool for the last several years to provide our community with a resource to connect with other families to either host a carpool or search for a carpool. Click the button below to log into the secure, unique system just for STEM. Please do not post this link on Facebook or any other platform as it is a unique link just for STEM.

In order for this resource to be successful, we need families who want to host a carpool to also sign-up in the system. Please email info@stemk12.org with any questions.
