At STEAM Academy, we believe that when students feel connected \u2014 to their peers, to their teachers, and to the school community \u2014 they thrive both academically and emotionally. That\u2019s why we\u2019re focused on creating a welcoming, inclusive environment where every student feels seen, heard, and supported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From morning greetings to intervention programs, classroom activities to extracurricular clubs, we are intentional about creating opportunities for students to connect. We also know that families play a vital role in this effort. Whether you&#8217;re attending a school event, checking in with your child about their day, or simply encouraging them to reach out and get involved, your support makes all the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We invite you to stay connected with us throughout the year. Reach out to your child\u2019s teachers, follow us on social media, and don\u2019t hesitate to call or stop by with questions or concerns. Together, we can ensure that every student feels a sense of belonging and connection at STEAM Academy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for partnering with us in your child\u2019s journey. We\u2019re looking forward to a fantastic year, full of learning, growth, and strong connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sincerely,<br>Rad <br>Principal, STEAM Academy<br><strong>_________________<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>STEAM VISION<\/em><\/strong> (what we strive to be): <br>STEAM Academy will foster life-long learners in a high-achieving, innovative school that respects diversity and ensures a positive, safe, collaborative environment.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our entire school maintains a focus around the curricular areas of <br><strong>S<\/strong>cience,<strong> <em>T<\/em><\/strong>echnology,<strong> <em>E<\/em><\/strong>ngineering,<strong> <em>A<\/em><\/strong>rts, and <strong><em>M<\/em><\/strong>ath (<strong><em>STEAM<\/em><\/strong>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>STEAM VALUES <\/em><\/strong>(who we are): <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-list\"><ul class=\"advgblist-4fb04a77-e972-46c2-8590-09b8a34b0f7f\">\n<li><strong>P<\/strong>urposeful<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>R<\/strong>espectful<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>I<\/strong>nnovative<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D<\/strong>isciplined<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>E<\/strong>xtraordinary<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The STEAM Academy at La Presa is dedicated to the development of the academic and social needs of our students. <br>With the support of our families and community, we are committed to cultivating the values of innovation, respect, discipline, and STEAM Academy \u201c<strong>P.R.I.D.E.<\/strong>\u201d in all of our students.<\/p>\n<style class=\"advgb-styles-renderer\">.wp-block-advgb-list ul.advgblist-4fb04a77-e972-46c2-8590-09b8a34b0f7f > li{font-size:16px;}<\/style>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Strive to be the best FOR the world, not IN the world.\u201d Dear STEAM Academy Families, I hope this message finds you well and enjoying a wonderful start to the 25-26 school year.
