SPI hosts an after school science club for elementary students on Thursdays at 4:15 pm. Instructional activities take 30-45 minutes; caregivers are expected to remain at SPI and are encouraged to take part in activities, particularly if the child is younger, has special needs, or caregiver is interested. Activities are geared for grades 3-5, but other ages may participate. SPI Club aspires to support curiosity and scientific thinking by introducing scientific models as well as open ended investigations that foster creativity. Science Club activities are included in membership and admission to SPI. Space is limited so RSVP below is helpful.
