Our Mission: To inspire, motivate and stimulate innovative thinking in the
areas of science, technology, engineering, math, and career development for
K-12 students; enhancing their lives through instruction, hands-on, and
experiential education delivered through partnerships with schools,
corporations, universities, and community.
Who We Are: Established in 1959, the Science Center was the first of its kind
in the United States and was the prototype for other centers in the nation. We
have become the premier science learning resource in the area. Students of all
ages participate in interactive, "hands-on" classes that teach them how to
hypothesize, discover, investigate, interpret and evaluate.
The Science Center is an independent nonprofit organization. Support from our
community plays a vital role in ensuring that the Science Center's education
programs continue to be available.
