Enrollment

New Student Enrollment Process

• STEM School Highlands Ranch accepts names for enrollment via our waitlist throughout the year. On December 1, we begin to pull students off of the waitlist for enrollment for the upcoming school year. Enrollment is based on grade level availability.  You will be given a 48-hour window to accept enrollment, so, please be sure to take a school tour any Wednesday morning at 10 am so you are ready to make a prompt decision.
• Priority will be given in this order: Founding families first, followed by siblings of current STEM students, employees, and Douglas County residents. These students will be put at the top of the waitlist.
• Sibling priority does not guarantee enrollment if there is not grade level availability.
• Due to waitlist priorities, we cannot release information regarding a student’s position on the waitlist.  Please do not call or email to request information regarding waitlist positions.
• The wait list is carried over from year to year. Names remain on the waitlist until they are placed for enrollment.
• There are no admission requirements.
• Once your student’s name is on the waitlist, no further action is required.
• STEM School Highlands Ranch does not operate their waitlist the same as Douglas County School District Open Enrollment.

Visit STEM

At the present time, STEM is not doing any in-person tours. When we return to normal operating procedures, we will open our doors every Wednesday at 10 a.m. for tours. There is no need to sign up, just meet in the Middle School Lobby. We ask that you arrive about 10 minutes early so that the group is ready to go at 10 a.m.

You will need to need to have your driver’s license in order to have a visitor badge made. Because we offer the weekly tour on Wednesdays at 10 a.m., we do not provide shadowing opportunities. Please check our website for school holidays, closures or other reasons the Wednesday tour might be cancelled. We also provide a High School Showcase night during the first Open Enrollment window.
