Why family building benefits matter for teachers – and students – at Denver School of Science and Technology

At Denver School of Science & Technology (DSST), supporting educators goes beyond the classroom. Teaching can make it difficult to balance personal and professional life, and family building often comes with unique barriers—especially under traditional insurance. By partnering with Progyny, DSST is removing those barriers and making it possible for teachers and staff to access the resources they need to build their families. The benefit not only supports employees during such a meaningful time in their lives, but also strengthens DSST’s culture, recruitment, and retention.

“When our teachers feel seen and valued and cared for by our leadership, they show up in ways that are so impactful to student outcomes. When you have the opportunity to remove barriers so that staff can be the best version of themselves, you see that come out not just in our student data but also in the culture of our schools.”
