Testimonials

“Our children get very excited when they know that this week we are going to have Discovering Science. We have parents that switch their child’s day just to make sure their child is here on Discovering Science day. Our teachers love the program and many times will ask the Discovering Science teacher questions about the lesson for future reference. We love the program and are glad to have this type of extended science program at our school.” 
– Director of a Preschool in Howard County

“My son before he participated in Science Encounter classes, was struggling in science with a C average. After he participated in one eight week Science Encounters class, his grades went from a C to an A in science. Thank you Science Encounters for building a spirit of confidence and excitement in the area of science for my son.”
– Parent (1999 school year)
