STEM Education is an interdisciplinary approach to learning where relevant academic concepts are tied in with real-world lessons as students apply science, technology, engineering and mathematics. This method of learning can help make stronger connections between school, work, community and the global enterprise. Being a Catholic STEM school further enhances the teaching and learning efforts while still following the curriculum set in place by the Archdiocese of Denver Catholic Schools.
Beyond religion and the STEM pillars, reading, writing, language arts, spelling, physical education, social studies, music, art, Spanish and computers are subjects taught at St. Francis de Sales.
