Upcoming Programs and Classes – 2020
Well, due to COVID-19, school is online for the rest of the year and most of our in-person summer science camps have been cancelled for the summer. For this reason, we have been creating 5 totally hands-on science kits for kids to have fun with at home! When you sign up for any one of our classes, you will receive a Super Science box containing all of the supplies needed for the class. Each class is also supported with YouTube video instruction and live teacher support. Here are the our classes!
