NextGeneration STEAM Academy

NextGeneration STEAM Academy is a solid charter option in Lathrop, a fast-growing city in the Central Valley where new neighborhoods and young families have been reshaping the community over the past decade. With a focus on science, technology, engineering, arts, and math woven throughout K-8, it tends to draw families who want something beyond a traditional curriculum and are looking for a school that feels intentional about how kids learn. For parents putting down roots in Lathrop's newer developments and wanting a school with a distinct identity, this one is worth a close look.
