PS Science Service Squad

QUICK OVERVIEW
Prepare materials and assist students with P.S. Science.
 
ABOUT P.S. SCIENCE
The great minds of tomorrow are in elementary schools everywhere, but science is not. PS Science brings inspiring lessons to classrooms that cultivate a deep understanding of the world and grow students and teachers who are confident and inspired by science. Volunteers will prepare materials that will be used for hands-on science lessons in elementary classrooms.
 
IMPACT
PS Science brings engaging hands-on science lessons to over 5,000 elementary students each week throughout the school year. These lessons transform the learning experience for students in classrooms where open-ended investigations are often missing.
 
VOLUNTEER ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Volunteers will help with simple, but essential tasks such as counting, cutting, folding, and prepping sets of materials to be used by students. 
 
REQUIREMENTS
Volunteers under the age of 18 will need to bring and have signed by a parent/guardian a Volunteer Agreement & Release for Minors. 
 
ACCESSIBILITY
The PS Science headquarters is wheelchair friendly.
