Science Alliance

Thank You to Our 2023/24

Science Alliance Sponsor!

Science Alliance is an after-school program available in all SRVUSD high schools created to pair curious and motivated 5th grade students (buddies) with high school students (mentors).

Mentors encourage and guide their buddies on a journey of science and methodical inquiry under the guidance of a credentialed teacher at one of the high schools. 

The year-long journey includes six buddy-mentor meetings, interesting lessons and learning opportunities. The program concludes with a district-wide Science Fair to be held on April 19, 2025, where buddies share the project they worked on throughout the program. The program has been widely recognized as helping to prepare the 5th graders for middle school lab science and teaches positive role-modeling skills to high school mentors. 

An informational parent meeting will be held on Tuesday, September 10, 2024. Classes will start on Monday, October 7, 2024.
