THANK YOU, STEM FAMILIES!
Dear STEM Families,
What an incredible way to cross the finish line!
On behalf of everyone at STEM School Highlands Ranch, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our entire Spartan community for the incredible support you showed during this year’s Boosterthon Accelerator Fund fundraiser.
Together, our families helped us surpass our $75,000 goal, raising more than $78,000 and counting!
Whether you registered your student, made a donation, shared a fundraising page with family and friends, volunteered on Event Day, cheered on our students, or supported the fundraiser in another way—you played a part in making this possible.
The Accelerator Fund is STEM’s primary all-school fundraising effort, and the dollars raised allow us to invest directly back into our students. The fund helps support classroom resources, academics and enrichment, clubs, athletics, technology, student experiences, campus improvements, and other needs and opportunities that arise throughout the year.
Surpassing our fundraising goal is absolutely something worth celebrating, and we are incredibly grateful. At the same time, our $75,000 goal represents what we hoped to raise through this year’s Boosterthon campaign—it does not represent the full scope of needs and opportunities we support through the Accelerator Fund each year.
The stronger we build this fund together, the more flexibility we have to say “yes” when our teachers, coaches, club advisors, and students bring forward opportunities that can make the STEM experience even better.
One of our goals with the Accelerator Fund is also to simplify fundraising for our families. Rather than continually asking our community to support individual needs throughout the year, we want to build one strong fund that can support students across Elementary, Middle, and High School as those needs arise.
We know our families are asked to give in many different ways throughout the school year—through your time, talents, resources, and support—and we never take that generosity for granted.
To every family who donated, shared, volunteered, encouraged, or supported this effort in any way: thank you.
More than anything, this fundraiser was another wonderful reminder of what is possible when our community comes together around our students.
We are incredibly grateful for you and for your continued investment in what is possible for our Spartans.
With Gratitude,
LynAnn Kovalesky
