Thank you for your interest in Explore Lab at WCCS! What began as one parent's vision has become a dynamic, innovative, and award winning project. Through ExploreLAB, parents and teachers partner together to supplement the science education of students by providing hands-on experiences in addition to those provided in the classroom. We are proud to say that in its first year, ExploreLAB was recognized by the Association of Christian Schools International as an Exemplary School Program (Christian School Education, ACSI, Vol. 6, Issue 5, May 2003. www.acsi.org) But we are not resting on our laurels. Every year the program has expanded, and is part of the curriculum from preschool through 5th grade.
Here is a partial list of what students will explore:
-
Children's Garden
