ABOUT STARBASE PETERSON

Our Goal

Welcome to STARBASE Peterson! At our STEAM Academy located on Peterson Space Force Base, we aim to inspire our community's youth to learn and explore as they participate in fun, exciting, and challenging “hands-on, minds-on” activities in Science, Technology, Engineering & Art/Design, and Mathematics (STEAM). We also give our students a unique experience to interact with military personnel as they explore a variety of military and civilian careers and observe STEAM applications in the “real world.” STARBASE Peterson is the only STARBASE Academy in Colorado.

The Program

STARBASE is a Civil-Military Youth Program with a focus on motivating 5th graders to explore STEAM opportunities as they continue their education. STARBASE encourages students to set goals and achieve them by providing 25 hours of exemplary hands-on instruction and activities that meet or exceed the National Standards.
