Adelita's family has been part of STEM School Highlands Ranch since its early days—her daughter Samantha was in the first kindergarten class when the school opened for K–5. She now has an 8th grader and a 6th grader at STEM. She works as an emergency department nurse right here in our community at UCHealth Highlands Ranch and holds degrees in Nursing and Health Care Administration. She's passionate about supporting our school’s mission and ensuring a strong, student-centered future for all our children.
