Educators & Students

The Science Center is joining the efforts to revitalize STEM education in our community.

Whether you meet us here in the museum, or you invite our staff to lead a program at your school or organization, our goal is the same: to show people that exploring these critical areas in an informal way can be fun, exciting, and inspiring.   Participation in museum-based science education programs can significantly increase students’ and educators’ content knowledge and improve their self-confidence in science ability. We reach thousands of students and educators annually through our school programs like in-classroom workshops, Family Science Nights, and more.   Our hope is that you’ll take the things you discovered as a result of your time with us and use them as a springboard to explore further. Our ultimate goal is to create a STEM-centered community that paves the way for excellence in science, technology, engineering and math.
