The Academy’s foremost purpose is to provide a broad STEM focus that will place a strong emphasis on science, technology, engineering and math.
American Dreamer STEM Academy (Grades K-8) has been designed to foster those qualities in a child that will provide him/her with the life skills that will lead to success. Every child is exposed to art that will allow creative self expression. District curricula are followed; however, supplementary materials and innovative practices are encouraged. Another strong feature of American Dreamer STEM Academy is the positive environment designed to promote feelings of self-worth and self-confidence in each child. There is a daily emphasis on manners that encourage respect and consideration of others. Cooperative learning is taught and practiced daily so that each child has a sense of belonging. The Academy adheres to a uniform dress code. The uniform dress code fosters equality in all students at any age. To create a successful atmosphere for progressive learning, commitment to the American Dreamer STEM Academy guidelines is required by parents, students and staff.
