STEM Day / Family STEM Night
A STEM Day or Family STEM Night is a community – school-based activity that allows students, parents, teachers, and caregivers an opportunity to participate together in the excitement of STEM activities while, at the same time developing a basic understanding of the scientific principles that underpin what is happening before their eyes.
Normally, an experienced GYSTC instructor will join with several local teachers to put on the programs together. A GYSTC instructor will meet with your teachers before the event in order to orient them on the how the event is to transpire. GYSTC will provide background information to the teachers to enhance the knowledge behind each lesson selected for the event. A local school, chosen by the school system, will define the broad parameters regarding such matters as the maximum number of participants, use of facilities and any other matters of importance to that particular school. The school is responsible for recruiting teachers to help with the program.
STEM Days/Family STEM Nights are $1,500 per event. This includes activities and professional development for the teachers.
*Please note: These events are offered by the GYSTC State Office. If you are a member of a GYSTC Regional Center, please contact your Regional Coordinator to schedule a STEM Day/Family STEM Night.
