[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Google NCAC STEM Scouts. It is a local program run by the NCAC BSA Scout Council. Stupid easy to run, they provide you with the lecture notes, projects, and gear. You provide 3-5 adults who are willing to go through the training (3-4 hours) and a Chartering Organization (like a PTA or Church or VFW Post) willing to support the organization. STEM Scouts is so much easier to run then a regular Scout unit. There is no fund raising, no camping or outdoor activities, no committee, no bank account. The modules (4-6 per unit) are pretty solid and leave room for the adult volunteers to be creative. There are a few labs in t he area, I am not certain if there is one in Arlington. But it is a great program. You might just need to create the program yoru kid needs. [/quote] Thanks! I will check it out. He is in BSA and LOVES it (doing a chemistry program later this month through BSA). I will look more into STEM scouts . [/quote] STEM Scouts rocks. We have loved it. You will probably need to put together a Lab but it really isn't that hard to do. The projects that they do are pretty cool. So far this year we have completed a Space Exploration and Structural Engineering module. We are working on a soft robotics module. It really is easy to run, the Council provides everything for the annual fee that you pay. Great program. They have material for ES and MS labs. I think they have stuff for HS labs as well but we are not at that place yet. [/quote]
