Science Support for Elementary Schools
A System for Science Success
PS Science supports classroom teachers in elementary schools with materials, curriculum and training so they can provide their students with regular and on-going science. With access to science from an early age, PS Science aims to ensure that all kids have an equal chance at the STEM careers of the future.

Stay in the know
PS Science educates children and supports teachers to:
In California, science is not tested until fifth grade, which has resulted in science not being taught nor emphasized in grades Kindergarten through four. PS Science supports elementary teachers with the materials, curriculum and training so they can provide their students with regular and on-going science. This consistent exposure and high-level engagement in meaningful science allows students to meet the requirements of testing in fifth grade. With ongoing science and education, teachers and students:
- See beauty, wonder, and infinite opportunity
- Do science through active exploration and collaboration.
- Know the joy of discovery and the power of knowledge.
