About Us

Robert M. Pyles STEM Academy, a California Gold Ribbon School and home of the spirited Panthers, first opened its doors in the city of Stanton in 1958. Almost 60 years later, we currently serve over 750 students in general and special education classrooms and we are the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Academy in the Magnolia School District.. We partner with families and the greater community to encourage, empower and expect that our boys and girls become responsible citizens in our local, national, and global society. Each child is provided a challenging educational program that develops intellectual, technological, social, emotional and physical growth by caring and committed staff members.
