You don’t have to wait to bring your group to the Orlando Science Center to experience the fun and inspiring STEM programs we have to offer – we can bring our programs to you!
Our Offsite programs allow us to extend our reach to provide high-quality STEM education to schools and communities throughout Central Florida and beyond. They are designed to supplement and enhance your science curriculum for Pre-K through high school. Students love experiencing hands-on fun, and caregivers and educators love that they are innovative and in line with Florida State Standards.
Best of all, these programs are a great way to provide engaging educational activities with very little work for you and your staff! Our programs are easy to set up and clean up, and we bring all the materials and do all the work, including program facilitation by our Educators who are specially trained in making learning an exciting experience!
