Barstow STEM Academy, Barstow | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

My daughter is not a student,we were trying to enroll her and I’m disappointed I was notified through a text message! that her application was canceled.Upon calling the office I was told based on test scores and grades(which I really didn’t understand she just won student of the month, math award,and award from barstow’s police station for her science project) she wouldn’t be admitted. My daughter has been an honor roll student throughout her elementary journey! Until coming to Barstow School district. Crestline was a waste of time! Especially after coming out of the pandemic. Her teacher did nothing to ensure the material was learned he actually didn’t even give homework. So now here I am forced to make her attend the local Junior high School where I’m pretty sure it’s going to be the same narrative that was the point to try to get her to go to a different type of quality school where she could be challenged engaged..Not just passed through.
Maybe another process should be used to enroll students into your school.

I went to STEM for 3 years of my life. I made friends I lost friends and it taught me a lot. Way more than I thought it would. Yes, they push you hard and yes they expect the best for you but it’s all worth it. They have an amazing principle and amazing teachers. I grew academically and as a person from going to this school. I have memories from this school that I will never forget. It’s an amazing school. I recommend it. To anyone!

I mean, it’s a good school; but I think some improvements could be made. The internet is spotty since the entire district fights for bandwidth and will crash for days on end.
