STEM Scouts

STEM Scouts tinker, explore and get creative doing hands-on activities in biweekly Lab meetings and occassional field trips. They try new things as they work with others, lead teams, communicate results and work with people in STEM careers.

STEM Scouts was designed by scientists from Oak Ridge National Laboratory to prepare girls and boys for a future of STEM literacy. Each year, we have 20 hands-on activities and accompanying kits for 5 modules or themes for youth in grades 3-5, and youth in grades 6-8 to explore together in Labs.

Lab Safety + Gear 

• At the beginning of any Lab, relevant safety notes are reviewed! Also, if the youth will be working on something like Chemistry, their safety goggles will be provided in the kits. Optional Lab Safety gear is available as shown below: 

• Youth Lab Coats are $26, Adult Lab Coats are $29
• All STEM Lab T-Shirts are $14
