Are you curious about the environment? Do you want to know more about nature and animals? Do you like spending time outside exploring nature? Could you imagine yourself as a marine biologist, a wolf researcher, a wildlife illustrator, an environmental engineer, or even a wildlife veterinarian?

Maybe, you don’t know what career path interests you, but if you join LAB GIRLS+, you might discover that you enjoy natural sciences, technology, engineering, art, or math (STEAM).

LAB GIRLS+ is an afterschool program at Great Brook School helping girls+ develop their interest in STEAM learning, field science skills, and career opportunities. Participants will work with high school students and regional women scientists, exploring, experimenting, and discovering the world of STEAM through a natural science lens.

LAB GIRLS+ staff include naturalists Susie Spikol and Nikko Gagnon, and science educator Emily Wrubel.

Open to students in grades 5 through 8 at Great Brook School. Free of charge.

This group meets Thursdays on October 24, November 7, November 14, & November 21 from school dismissal to 4:15 p.m. at Great Brook School. Space is limited, and registration is required. For more information, including questions about accessibility, contact Susie.

Funding for this free program is provided by the Bessie Foundation, the Verney Foundation, BHDLWA, and other generous private supporters.
