As part of the PTA's commitment to inspire and cultivate student participation in STEM activities, we have organized after-school STEM workshops for students throughout the school year.
These STEM workshops are facilitated by a national non-profit STEM education group called KAST (Kids Are Scientists, Too). KAST is run by volunteer students from Centreville High School and aims to expose young students in elementary schools to STEM topics with the hope of instilling a life-long joy of science.
An after-school KAST workshop is about an hour long. Each session begins with an engaging lecture followed by an activity such as an experiment. The lesson concludes with a short review to ensure each student fully understood the material. These science workshops are intended to align with the 3rd to 6th grade curriculum and are intended to provide the students with more hands-on activities.
These after-school workshops are FREE, but space is limited, so REGISTER EARLY.
