The Future of STEM Education Takes Shape
Located in Aurora’s Fitzsimons Innovation Community, the Aurora Science Technology School (ASTS) is part of the DSST Public Schools network, a regional system of public charter schools focused on STEM education. Serving students in grades six through twelve, the school provides a variety of learning environments, including dedicated science classrooms, flexible academic spaces, and collaborative commons areas. Positioned near the Anschutz Medical Campus and the Fitzsimons Innovation Campus, ASTS offers students the unique opportunity to engage with cutting-edge medical and life sciences research. The three-story design maximizes the compact site while delivering modern, adaptable learning spaces for both middle and high school students.

Spaces Designed for Experimentation and Collaboration
ASTS was designed to foster curiosity, collaboration, and innovation, reflecting its STEM-focused mission. The proximity to research institutions inspired classrooms and labs that integrate real-world science and technology applications, preparing students for future careers in STEM fields. The design emphasizes flexibility, with Phase 2 completed to expand commons areas, classrooms, and multi-use learning spaces that support both collaborative and independent learning. The building’s exterior, featuring brick masonry, metal paneling, and large windows, aligns with the Fitzsimons Innovation Community’s design guidelines while providing ample natural light and visual connections to the surrounding campus.
A Model for Future Ready Learning
With both phases complete, ASTS now fully supports a comprehensive STEM curriculum, combining specialized science labs, collaborative learning environments, and community-oriented spaces. The facility provides students with hands-on, real-world learning experiences while promoting engagement, teamwork, and innovation. Its thoughtfully designed layout and modern amenities enhance Aurora’s educational landscape and offer students the tools and inspiration to pursue higher education and careers in science, technology, engineering, and math. ASTS stands as a model for integrating rigorous academics with flexible, future-ready learning spaces.
