While school may be ending, PTO won't be completely quiet over the summer. You’ll still hear from us with updates and communication as we begin preparing for the next school year. Our PTO Board will be meeting on May 29th to start planning all the fun, events, and exciting things ahead for next year. We already know one thing for sure... we’ll need LOTS of helping hands to make next year just as successful as this one. Keep an eye out for opportunities to jump in because many hands truly make light work. Have an amazing summer, Lynx families!

As we wrap up this school year, we want to give a very special THANK YOU to Christina Cooper, our Fundraising Chair, and Wendy Kish, our Finance Chair, for serving on the PTO Board over the past two years. Serving on the board means countless hours behind the scenes: meetings, planning, problem solving, organizing, budgeting, fundraising, and so much more that often goes unseen.

Christina and Wendy, thank you for sharing your time, talents, and hearts with STEM Lab. We are so grateful for everything you have done for our students, staff, and families. Your impact will continue to be felt long after your board terms end.

What a FUN week celebrating our incredible STEM Lab staff! From treats and surprises to special activities and thoughtful touches throughout the week, we loved having the opportunity to show our appreciation for the amazing people who pour so much into our students every single day.

Despite an unexpected last-minute reschedule due to police activity in the neighborhood, our Burgers & Blankets event ended up being a wonderful evening filled with food, fun, and community. Thank you to everyone (Including In N Out and Hip Pops) for your flexibility and patience as we navigated a situation completely outside of anyone’s control.

As a little treat to our families, and because our fundraising efforts have gone so well this year, PTO chose to offer meals for just $5 each. In-N-Out actually recommended an $8 meal price, but we wanted to give back and make the event as affordable as possible for our community. We wanted to share that as a little heads up that pricing could potentially increase in future years.

One of our favorite traditions each year is celebrating former STEM Lab students as they take their next big steps after graduation. This year, we were thrilled to award TWO STEM Lab Alumni Scholarships of $1,000 each to two incredible graduates!

These scholarships recognize students who once walked the halls of STEM Lab and continue to demonstrate hard work, leadership, character, and a commitment to their future goals. Seeing our former students grow, succeed, and continue pursuing amazing opportunities is such a special reminder of the lasting impact of this community.

As part of our ongoing practice at STEM Lab, we honor and acknowledge that the land we are located on today is the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Cheyenne, Arapaho, and Ute Nations and peoples. Many different Native tribes have used this land for trade, hunting, gathering, and healing. We extend our respect to Elders past, present, and future, and to all those who have stewarded the land and water since time immemorial. We invite others to join us in this acknowledgment to renew and reaffirm First Nations’ history in Colorado and to pay tribute to these traditional homelands and their people.

It's the quickest way to stay up to date!
