Search for the QCD critical point and the onset of deconfinement is the main motivation of the beam energy scan (BES) program at RHIC. Strangeness (especially the multi-strangeness) production has been suggested as a sensitive probe to the early dynamics of the deconfined matter created in heavy-ion collisions. The data taken during 2010 and 2011 in BES phase-I, have indicated the potential changes of medium properties in between $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 19.6 GeV and 11.5 GeV. However, the statistics collected during the BES phase-I are not enough to draw definite conclusions. Since 2018, STAR has conducted the BES phase-II program and accumulated high statistics Au+Au collisions data at various energies ($\sqrt{s_{NN}}$) below 27 GeV. The productions of $K_{s}^{0}$, $\Lambda$, $\Xi$, $\Omega$, and $\phi$ from Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 27, 19.6, and 14.5 GeV will be presented in this talk. The strange hadron spectra, nuclear modification factors, and particle ratios (in particular $\Omega$/$\phi$) will be reported. The physics implications on the collision dynamics will also be discussed. \end{document}
