Engage Your Family with Our Citizen Science InVenTures
- Being a Citizen Scientist is when everyday people, like you and me, help professional scientists collect information for their research.
- This is a fun and exciting way that parents can build strong, positive relationships with their children.
- It also helps parents nurture their children's early learning skills in science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM).
The George Washington Carver Family and Community STEAM Club provides opportunities for parents and families to make connections with themselves and other people in the community. The Club promotes the development of both collaborative and leadership skills.
