Science Savvy Academy Group Class

Think Like A Scientist

Science Savvy Academy is a new local Science option that teaches kids how to actually DO science and develop skills for lifelong discovery, rather than just regurgitating facts.

The program, geared to Jr. High students aged 11-15, is offered by a licensed teacher who spent eight years earning a reputation for pushing the boundaries of traditional education, developing new curricula, and discovering ways to get teens excited about science.

She will travel to your group once per month for a hands-on lab activity, based on the ideas explored in weekly online group discussions.


Skills, not facts

Facts can be googled. Skills must be learned and developed.
