Your world–and your child’s–has been turned upside down. School buildings have closed, jobs have been lost or become more demanding, day care is not an option for many making the last few months extraordinarily difficult. Yet, this crisis has helped us grow. This crisis has revealed what our children need most and helped us discover new ways to keep them fulfilled and growing especially when it comes to their education. And our Catholic STEM Schools in Los Angeles and San Gabriel have embraced the challenge going above and beyond most schools to nurture your child’s present and set them up for a bright future. Catholic STEM Schools: The right fit...right now. Our students build confidence and resilience through the entire STEM learning ecosystem making a TK-8th Catholic STEM School education one of the best gifts you can give your child. Teaching your child to solve problems creatively, collaborate with their teachers and peers, and utilize real world applications to promote deeper learning are all gifts that will equip them for an uncertain future. Of course, every student at our STEM Catholic schools continue to learn the basic curriculum you would find at most schools, however science, technology, engineering and math knowledge is emphasized at our schools. You’ll see the impact of a more integrated approach to education on your child quickly, and that impact will last a lifetime. A Catholic STEM education prepares your child for a dynamic and competitive career while at the same time builds up their character, integrity and virtues. STEM jobs are projected to grow at a faster rate than non-STEM jobs by 2027 (13% vs 9%). Also, out of 100 STEM occupations, 93% of them had wages above the national average. An investment now in your child’s education will put them on the fast track to a stable and thriving future. Responding to the Unknown We are all facing the unexpected right now. Our school leaders and teachers, along with support from the Department of Catholic Schools at the Archdiocese of Los Angeles worked diligently to transition to remote learning once school building closures took place. We provided regular check-ins: including daily prayer, liturgies and community building with students, as well as, devices to all families who needed it so that the learning could continue within a matter of 2 -3 days. Our ability to respond to the situation quickly and take each step as a learning experience is in our DNA at each of our STEM schools. However, we all know that learning together, in-person, is best for children. It matters not only for each child’s academic growth, but for their spiritual and emotional well-being–a priority that we take as seriously as their physical health. In close collaboration with the county and the archdiocese, and with the support of generous donors to provide PPE equipment, we are scheduled to resume in-person learning for our students this Fall. While each school in our network will approach instruction based on the needs of the school community, all our schools are uniquely positioned to maintain a robust academic program–even with social distancing guidelines.
You can rest assured knowing that we will do all we reasonably can to keep your child and your family safe this year. Scholarships and Support If you currently send your child to a public school you may be thinking, “This sounds great, but how can I afford this?” Catholic Schools are founded on the premise that all children are deserving of equal access to an excellent education. One of our values is to promote equity in STEM education and in the STEM workforce, contributing to better solutions to the world’s diverse problems. If tuition is the reason you can’t afford a STEM Catholic School, then please get in touch so we can talk to you about scholarships and financial aid. You may be surprised to find out that Catholic Schools are more affordable than you originally thought, compared to the typical private STEM school in Los Angeles.
