Rochester STEM Academy

A community focused school providing a rigorous STEM education.

Academics

The mission of Rochester STEM Academy is to provide a highly supportive learning environment for minority, immigrant and other students currently underserved in traditional area high schools and greatly underrepresented in Rochester’s STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) industries through a challenging program that emphasizes creativity, accountability, ongoing assessments, college-preparation, and high academic achievement.

Student Life

High school is a time for exploration. A time to hone academic knowledge and skills but also a time for identifying personal interests, goals and leadership potential. RSTEM supports PSEO and offers AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination), an elective course designed to support students in developing the skills to prepare them for success in high school and beyond. We offer a Leadership Seminar where students explore their strengths as leaders and create opportunities for leadership within the school, fencing and, this year, basketball.

Parents & Families

At Rochester STEM Academy, we believe our greatest strength is our families. As such, we strive to involve parents and families in student life.

Community Connections

When RSTEM was founded, our mission was, and continues to be a community focused school providing a rigorous STEM education.
