January 2023 - Science Squad is Growing!

I am still working out some details, but for 2023 you will have TWO class options - 

Ages 6-10 will still be geared towards elementary aged children. We will work on a different topic each month, and we'll be able to explore more based on the kids' interests. Classes will last 45-60 minutes, all supplies provided. 

Ages 11+ will be made for middle schoolers who are ready to go more in depth and take on more complex ideas and challenges. Don't worry, still LOTS of fun and hands-on learning. We will work on one topic per month. Classes will be approx 60 minutes, all supplies provided. 

If you have multiple children who you would like to attend together, I will leave it up to you to decide which class would be best. 

You can see the class schedules below, and keep scrolling for sign-ups. 

​INFO - Each month will include 3-4 lessons. Registration and payment for the month is required before attendance. You can participate in any or all months. If you miss a class, I can email the lesson so you can complete it at home. If I have to cancel for weather, illness, etc, I will issue a refund for the class missed. We will have a maximum of 10 students per class.

Description: Each class will have a lesson and activity that is age/ability appropriate.  Younger siblings are welcome to observe and "help" with an activity as long as a parent is supervising. We use a variety of tools to maximize each child's experience.  Parents are asked to stay in the location of the class and always welcome in class. 

Cost: $30 or 40 per child/class (depends on # of classes each month. Includes supplies)
​Payments must be made at least 5 days in advance via credit/debit card, PayPal or Venmo.

I offer a 50% discount for each additional child in your family to participate if you want to share supplies (this does not include littles under 6 yrs old) up to $80*. If you have 2 children participating, it will be $60 (40+20). If you have 4 children participating, it will still be $80. However, if you want a separate kit for each child, then it will be $30/40 each.

*This applies only to each family, not friends sharing.

A parental consent form is required for each participant before any class is attended (available in class). This form is to ensure you understand the inherent danger associated with hands-on science experiments. A review of all tools, chemicals, and accessories to be used is available for your review before each class.

Each class has a minimum of 5 families, otherwise the class will be cancelled. 



Refund/Make-up Policy:
1. If you miss a class, no refunds can be given as supplies and plans have to be purchased and organized ahead of time. 
​2. If we have to cancel class due to weather, illness, etc then I will issue a refund.



** All classes for Fall 2022 are FULL**
Please contact me to be put on a waiting list as we often have families need to miss unexpectedly.
