Welcome to S.T.E.M. Christian Academy
Parents as Partners
At S.T.E.M Christian Academy, we recognize that parents are a child’s first and most important teacher. We are always interested in hearing how a child is doing outside of school, and we learn so much about a child by having conversations with parents. We strive to build strong bonds with families, to create a partnership that puts the emphasis on what’s best for each child.

Join The PTO
We believe educating your children is a joint responsibility between home and school. The PTO was created to allow this goal to be achieved. S.T.E.M encourages all our parents and staff to participate in the PTO. Being a part of the PTO is a great way to be involved in your child’s life and education. The PTO enables parents and families to network, build strong community ties, and create a wholesome, Christian environment for staff, students, and their families to be a part of.
The S.T.E.M Christian Academy PTO organizes fundraisers and helps put on school events and functions. Studies have shown that being a part of the PTO benefits your children and is a rewarding experience for all involved.
