Background
At Noche De Ciencias, students will experience various hands-on activities about the different fields of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) with volunteers who are real-life and aspiring engineers and scientists.
While the students enjoy their activities, parents will participate in round-tables to learn about college admissions and programs available to finance higher education costs. They will also learn how and why its important to start early.
The Students
This spring, our participants will be 11 to 13 year-old students of William Sheppard Middle School. The event will take place during an early afternoon assembly and will be part of their school curriculum.
Volunteering
We are expecting a large enthusiastic group of approximately 250 students between ages 11-13, as well as parents to participate. We need your help!
