Funding from the Delaware County Interactive Gaming Revenue Authority has been granted to support collaboration between Widener University’s Science Teaching Center and representatives from the community of Chester. These mentors facilitate both in-school and out-of-school time events for children, families, WU teacher candidates and faculty focused on STEAM activities (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) for local children. This grant also supported the purchase of scientific equipment for classrooms in the Chester Upland school district as well as field trips to local nature centers.
