Science Zone AmeriCorps Program

About The Science Zone

The Science Zone is a dynamic non-profit organization committed to delivering high-quality STEAM education to students and families. Our mission is to spark curiosity, elevate science discourse, and inspire interest in STEAM careers across our community.

We achieve this through:

• Educational Programming:
  Classes, clubs, field trips, outreach, and camps.
• Experiential Learning: A hands‑on museum with interactive exhibits for families.

Ameri Corps members are vital to this mission. They lead camps and classroom lessons, support field trips and outreach, mentor and tutor students, and assist with community education events. Members receive training and are matched with roles that suit their interests and availability. Service terms range from Half-Time to Abbreviated-Time, offering flexibility and personal growth.
