My Project

Scholars learn best "hands-on." They must have experience with different science tools. We have supplied many basic science supplies; however, certain things can't be substituted.

When scholars are excited, learning takes place.

Scholars need these experiences to help guide them into the future. We have invested in Science equipment we need tables and chairs so our scholars are comfortable. How many future scientists are we passing up due to lack of excitement or experience? We want our scholars to use the necessary equipment so they can make educated decisions about their future. This project will give our students a true Science Lab experiience. These tables and chairs are the final additions to the lab we have been working on for a year.
