IN SCHOOL MODULE BASED STEM ENRICHMENT PROGRAMSCIENCE FROM SCIENTISTS (SFS) FLAGSHIP PROGRAM, FIRST LAUNCHED IN 2002, IS THE IN-SCHOOL MODULE-BASED STEM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING AND MATH) ENRICHMENT PROGRAM. HAS DEVELOPED HANDS-ON, STATE AND NATIONAL CURRICULUM FRAMEWORKS ALIGNED LESSONS FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 4-8. LESSONS COVER A VARIETY OF TOPICS SUCH AS EARTH SCIENCE, LIFE SCIENCE, PHYSICS, CHEMISTRY, ENGINEERING, AND THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD. SFS PARTNERS WITH LOCAL ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOLS TO DELIVER THE CONTENT DURING THE SCHOOL DAY ON A REGULAR RECURRING (E.G. BIWEEKLY) BASIS THROUGHOUT THE SCHOOL YEAR. AS PART OF THE PROGRAM, SFS PROVIDES THE INSTRUCTORS, LESSONS, AND MATERIALS TO EACH PARTNER SCHOOL. WE ARE CURRENTLY SERVING OVER 3,200 STUDENTS IN SEVERAL COMMUNITIES IN MASSACHUSETTS AND CALIFORNIA. THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO IMPROVE STUDENT ATTITUDES AND APTITUDES IN STEM BY PROVIDING THEM WITH REAL, CHARISMATIC SCIENTIST ROLE MODELS AND COMPLEMENTING AND EXTENDING THE TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM CURRICULA THROUGH HANDS-ON ACTIVITIES AND EXPERIMENTS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesSep 1, 2017 – Aug 31, 2018Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.1MProgram 2 [2018]

WHERE OUR STAFF DEMONSTRATES SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES (SUCH AS REACTION CATALYSTS AND PRESSURE) TO AUDIENCES OF ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS AND THEIR PARENTS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesSep 1, 2017 – Aug 31, 2018Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$161.8KIn-School STEM Education Program
IN-SCHOOL MODULE-BASED STEM EDUCATION PROGRAM: OUR SIGNATURE PROGRAM FOR 23 YEARS. IN AY24-25, WE SERVED 10,565 STUDENTS IN GRADES 3-8 IN 84 SCHOOLS ACROSS OUR THREE REGIONS: MA, MN, AND CA. 75% OF THE STUDENTS WERE BIPOC, 56% ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED, AND 30% MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS. MATCHED PAIR ANALYSIS HAS SHOWN A 10% HIGHER SCIENCE PROFICIENCY SCORE THAN A COMPARISON GROUP OF NONPARTICIPATING PEERS. IN OUR MAY 2025 SURVEY, 83% OF TEACHERS REPORTED THAT THEIR STUDENTS UNDERSTAND STEM CONCEPTS MORE THAN THEY DID BEFORE, AND 99% OF TEACHERS SAID THAT STUDENTS HAD LEARNING EXPERIENCES THAT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT SCIENCE FROM SCIENTISTS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesSep 1, 2024 – Aug 31, 2025Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.7M
