AN EXCITING HIGH SCHOOL CHOICE IN REUNION

The STEAD School team is committed to building a community that is diverse and inclusive of all humans. As a school community, we recognize that not all students who attend a public school have access to high quality learning opportunities.  We also recognize that inequities across systems have historically disproportionately left minority communities behind.  In order to disrupt systemic inequities, we strive to support student leaders on their journeys in becoming critical thinkers and risk takers who are prepared to disrupt systems.
