The Exelon and Museum of Science and Industry Green Lab Grant was awarded to Widener University’s Science Teaching Center, the Chester Upland School District, and the Boys and Girls Club of Chester. The grant will support an arc of activities starting with the STC’s Next Generation Summer Science Camp.
The Camp will actively recruit in the Chester Upland School District and offer full Camp scholarships for all CUSD applicants. The camp will highlight projects and research questions using the technologies and kits in the form of “Mobile Green Labs”.
Following the Camp, students will have the opportunity to attend a series of focused Saturday Academies throughout the academic year with the goal of engaging these students in more detailed follow-up green research projects and activities with the goal of developing their green research projects to be presented at the district-wide CUSD Science Fair in May 2024.
