STEM SPOTLIGHT MESSAGE 9/14/25
Dear STEM School Highlands Ranch Families,
Another busy week! The weather tried to interfere a few times but we managed to fit everything in.
eSports kicked off its Preseason this week. The High School team showed why they are the team to beat this year. Led by Senior veterans, the team raced, fought, and smashed their way to victory. Senior Marvel Rivals team (Gold) beat Vista Peak 3-0. Smash Gold beat Pine Creek 3-0, and Mario Kart beat La Cueva High School 2-1. Our Valorant team, comprised of both experienced and rookie players, fought a hard battle against ranked opponent, San Francisco High School and lost 0-1. Rookie Smash Blue team lost 0-1. Rocket League played regional power house Big Fork High School losing 2-3 in a tightly contested match.
Middle School kicked off their preseason with an intersquad meet. We saw great growth in our rookies as they learned the ins and outs of competitive play. This year the Middle School team saw huge growth with five Smash teams and one Rocket League team. We are excited to see their progress this year!
MS Cross Country is participating in the Slavins Invitational on Friday. HS Cross Country is racing in the Liberty Bell Invitational on Saturday.
Boys Soccer played two very tough teams this week. While they were not able to come away with a victory, they made the games very competitive. Well done.
Girls Volleyball also competed well this week despite not picking up a victory. Keep playing hard Spartans!
Boys Golf continues to grow and improve. Although the weather has interrupted a few opportunities, the team will be cramming in as many tournaments as possible in the last few weeks of the season.
Speech/Debate will be starting soon!
Go Fan Tickets Available:
All STEM home athletic games are broadcast on the NFHS Network. A subscription is needed to watch. It is a streaming service, so Spartan (Volleyball/Basketball) games can be watched live or later 'on demand'. In fact, you can watch any game broadcast on NFHS, including Spartan games where we are visiting other schools with cameras (we play at D'Evelyn, Vail Christian, Nederland, AWCP, Two Roads, Loveland Classical all have NFHS).
A subscription is a nice gift for family members who live elsewhere; they only need internet access and a phone/tablet/computer/TV to watch! STEM also receives a portion of the subscription fee! To learn more or subscribe, go to: www.stemspartanathletics.org
