Welcome to Science from Scientists!

Today your child began an exciting science program in their classroom offered by Science from Scientists. SfS is a Boston-based, non-profit organization that strives to improve science and technology attitudes and aptitudes. We send real scientists into the classroom during school every other week to teach exciting, fun, and curriculum-relevant science lessons. We will be visiting your child’s classroom every other week throughout the school year. We will bring engaging, informative, and stimulating hands-on lessons with us to supplement the school’s science curriculum.

Ms. LaForest and Mr. Hart will be your scientific instructors for this academic year. Ms. LaForest received her Ph.D. in Evolutionary Biology and studies how viruses interact with plants. Mr. Hart received his degree in Biochemistry and studies multiple neurodegenerative diseases focusing on Alzheimer’s Disease. They are both very excited to bring SfS to Whelan and get students instantly engaged in scientific inquiry.
