Science in the Summer

2024 GSK Science in the Summer™

When school is out, science is in! GSK Science in the Summer™ opens in a new window keeps the learning going for students entering second through sixth grade. This free, hands-on science education program aims to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. This year’s theme, Be a Space Scientist, features hands on activities and scaffolded group work inviting children to solve real problems addressed by work in Space.

In partnership with GSK and The Franklin Institute, Carnegie Science Center is working with 13 local organizations to provide supplies, curriculum for in person learning sessions.

This year all sessions will be provided at the partner sites, in person. Sessions will be lead by Science on the Road Educators or someone from the partner site, depending on the best fit for all communities involved.
