This event focuses on the importance of a strong and early start in science learning and the state of elementary science in Massachusetts.

This speaker and panel discussion session, organized by the MetroWest STEM Education Network and EDC Inc., will introduce attendees to the importance of a strong and early start in science learning and the state of elementary science in Massachusetts; give them a chance to share their perspectives and questions about elementary science learning and teaching; and talk with leaders who play a key role in making sure that our elementary schools give all children the tools to become the science learners the Commonwealth needs.
