120 Rogers Ranch and Desert Meadows students were invited to ASU’s Football Stadium for a STEM in Sports field trip. The American Council for Engineering Companies invited electrical, structural and civil engineers to give breakout presentations on how all of the systems in the stadium work. After 4 breakout sessions, students were invited to have lunch with the College of Engineering in order to discuss how to make engineering a career.

Rogers Ranch held their very first career day on April 12.

Professionals from various industries including forensic science, construction, and civil and electrical engineering met with students to share their insights and experiences. This was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn more about different career paths, the skills and qualifications needed to succeed in different industries, and connect with professionals who can offer guidance and support.

It was exciting to see students engage with the community and explore the many exciting career opportunities available to them.

The retreat is put on by Youth Frontiers, based out of Minnesota.  The end goal is for students to learn how to act with courage to build a positive school culture and climate.

Rogers also had several student volunteers from Cesar Chavez High School support with small group facilitation.  These high school students were chosen by their teachers based on their academic merit, athletics, and leadership skills.

 Rogers Ranch participated in the MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement) Regional Design Day at GCU on February 11. Students either participated in challenges or received feedback on their designs.  The Attack Vehicle group from Rogers Ranch School was one of the few groups with a moving robot. The Rogers Ranch Hack Attack group were able to compete against other teams, and consistently ranked in the top 5 during those practices. They will now use the practice and feedback from Saturday to help them prepare for MESA Day, which will be held at GCU on May 6.

On Friday, February 10 Rep. Elect Oscar De Los Santos visited Rogers Ranch. It was a privilege to show him around our campus! He even got to engage in the Edison Bots coding with our 3rd graders.
