Student Programs at FSC
The Scientific Tools and Techniques Program (STT) is a challenging, fast-paced, one-semester program designed to familiarize 9th grade students with the tools and techniques of scientific inquiry. STT students are involved in rigorous science curriculum and take an array of life and environmental science modules taught by instructors who are field specialists. In one semester students take two accelerated high school science courses: STT Biology and STT Environmental Science.
This is an excellent activity for kids who like science. Students in grades 3-5 challenge themselves to complete a variety of science activities involving tests of knowledge and measurement skills. The day begins with a parade for all participants, and winners get medals. Our event is a Regional Qualifier – top teams will advance to STATE!
