Celebrating Curiosity, Confidence, and STEM Futures
at the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS)

Our Club members participating in the incredible program at the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS) recently reached an exciting milestone Parent Night Showcase and it was a powerful moment of pride, learning, and celebration.

This hands-on, immersive program is designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and a passion for STEM. Throughout the experience, Club members engaged in experimentation, problem-solving, and real-world exploration. During Parent Night, they proudly presented their projects to their families, showcasing not only what they learned, but the confidence, communication skills, and critical thinking they’ve developed along the way.

One of the most memorable moments of the evening was seeing each participant receive their official lab coat and certificate—a meaningful symbol of their dedication, growth, and belief in their own potential.
